The problem is not to no ID a person, that should and it is for the most part standard safety practice in every banking industry in the entire planet. The issue is BANKING OVERALL, again for those that do not get it -- it is the most extennuating thing one has to go through on this marvelous country.
These people believe in a Passport more than they do to the Bibble itself for those that are Christian (am not),I mean, if someone make the critical mistake of not having a Passport, you can show any other ID and the banks will turn you around.
For those of you whom have not gone through this, well, congrats. For the rest of us rgardless of our time as customers, having a Peso or USD account that have endure such actions, hang in there is the only thing that comes to mind.
I stand correct and repeat myself; banking sucks in DR!
Don't even get me started on wire transfer money availability and the questioning related to it....
