--------------------
now that "other" bank said that they refused B of A teller check because
B of A could not, in their words "show without a shadow of a doubt that
the check was valid".  (they were afraid that i would ask for a stop payment
before they cashed it)
--------------------

I could understand this if you were trying to draw on this money
immediately, but since you also tried to deposit cash it seems unlikely.
Most banks don't make the money available until the check has cleared
and the "real" money is in their possession.

Question: They wouldn't take a teller check, they wouldn't take a
traveller's check, and they wouldn't take cash.  What's left, AmEx?
