PostOffice Taps NationsBank as Depository in 3 States, D.C.

NationsBank Corp. has been chosen to provide depository services to 1,575 post offices in three states and Washington, D.C.

Under a deal scheduled to be announced today, Charlotte, N.C.-based NationsBank will handle the daily cash transactions for the Postal Service in Georgia, Maryland, northern Virginia, and Washington.

NationsBank is also helping the Postal Service-which is effectively the ninth-largest U.S. corporation-with several debit and credit card initiatives.

The Postal Service banks with half of the nation's 10,000 banks but wants to use fewer than 1,000. NationsBank is one of 40 banks that has been designated as a long-term-relationship bank.
