For the past five days my esposo debit card from his canadian bank no funciona. We thought maybe samana santa and the bank machines are out of money but no. It did not work today at scotia bank, progreso,popular nor ban reserva. At popular one brave sole informed us that many people where having a problem.
He has called his bank in canada and they say all is in order there. It does seem to be a dominican problem and more extensive than just an internet malfunction. If it is just a connection problem it is the mother of all time consuming disconnects we have ever experienced. Maybe it is ladronas with this new heartbleed bug lol.
Anybody else having trouble and anybody have a solution short of my husbands next move which is to fly to toronto and get some money lol...just kidding...he has asked for a wire transfer which is common for him but usually for the larger amounts of money.
If it is a problem with canadian banks he will switch to a USA bank. I have a canadian company account with scotia bank so we might switch to them for our personal finances too. It is kind of confusing to me because I can pay employies direct into a dominican bank from canada but his pension fund will only pay into a canadian or USA bank...oh well never a dull moment.
Hopfully it is just a tempory problem and all will return to normal by morning.
