I misspoke regarding the courier service.
We are contracted with a non-affiliated third party to pick up deposits on behalf of our customers. We, the bank, assume all liability for insurance purposes.
In this scenario, who should we consider the conductor? a) Armored Car Service, b) Mail Deposit or Shipment, or as you pointed out previously, the person picking up the deposit?
Thanks again for all your help, I know we're making this more difficult than it needs to be.
