*takes a moment to recompose*

Gecko, it's come to my attention that some irresponsible withces and wizards are changing ordinary objects into money. This interchange of currency cannot be allowed. Your job is to detect the fradulent money. I've had some new equipment and proper reading materials sent to your office.

Accio, how would you like to go out and recruite local businesses?

Oh good day Miss, can I help you?
You'd like these 50 Galleons changed into Muggle currency?
That can be arranged?
Shall I give you pounds then? Or do you prefer another currency?

50 Galleons would equal £250.00, minus administration costs, that would be £245.00 .

29 knuts = 1 sickle

Yes, it would make p.princess's life easier, I believe. Unless, she comes up with a better system, of course. :grin:

*munches on the sugar puff*

Why, thank you Miss!
Your money is in excellent hands here!
If you have any muggle money left when you return from your holiday, you can of course come back to me and change it into good old galleons, sickles and knuts! :P

I'd like to oppen an acount here with the number 1112, please. :) Is that possible :???:
I'm soon opening a store and I might tell my costumers to pay me in the account directly. Would it be possible with everything I'm asking????

*thumbs through file*

1112 . . . Oh, here, you're in luck . . . vault 1112 is available, but i'm afraid it's rather small. You see, it used to be a closet until we did renovations receintly and added to our number of vaults.

*looks through the files again* :-?

Vault 1113 is also available and much bigger. What I could do, is put a linking charm on vaults 1112 and 1113 so that all deposits to 1112 go into vault 1113. But then any withdrawls made will have to come out of 1113.

That's not too confusing is it? Will you be putting anything in your vaults today?
