I post this in the North Coast Forum because this is where we live. I hope I got it right!!!
A little history. My wife and I are going on 11 years living here on the North Coast. We are on our 3 Perm Residencea and it is valid. My wife opened a bank account at Banreservas a bunch of years ago. I’m not gonna get into all the incompetence going on there. I mean if you don’t “use” your account even though it has a substantial amount of money deposited, they closed the account and kept the money!!! LOL!!! Well…after a few “hoops” to jump through all is well with that today. It was x-mas time…..you know?
Anyways, almost two months ago she made an attempt to open another account at Banco Popular (POP location at the square). She was provided with a very long list of things to provide them. She got all the stuff together and emailed attachments to the officer at the bank…at their request. Back and forth they have been going around and around for weeks and weeks. Each time they want something different or new, and even ask for the same stuff she already provided. Today she went to the bank in person, all original paperwork in hand, thinking that this officer may not know how to open an attachment from an email. Finally the officer asked for MORE paperwork, translated and notarized! Whats up with these people? Frustrated she left and said she will put her substantial amount of money someplace else. I don’t get it. I have heard folks here, in another thread someplace, say to try another branch….another bank. Grrrrrr.......I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks!!!
