Anyone work for a bank?

[mstng86]

We just found out the fed wire system is down across the country. Money isn't moving.

Anyone else here this?

I didn't here nuthin.

Serious issue if it is true. The Fed Wire system just doesn't go down across the country very often.

Works fine over here at my bank.

Maybe you failed and the FDIC just hasnt told you yet....

Ha, maybe.

But that isn't the info we have been given. You sure your wires aren't just debiting the account and just sitting?

Think of all the money that they make in interest if transactions don't go through until monday. Unscheduled bank holidays FTL.

This is what we are getting:

"Federal Reserve servers and lines are down impacting all banks nationwide. Inbound and outbound FED traffic has stopped due to a problem on the FRB side. "

I haven't checked, but I will call my wire dept real quick to make sure.

If we joke about it, it won't be so bad.

Well I guess that it was true. I just find it odd that the system went down. I have never seen or heard of it before.

It would be interesting to see if it shows up on the news. But of course, we will never know the true reason for the outage.
