I'm not sure if this is the right Forum, but please bear with me. I'm in the middle of this BanInter fiasco. So far I've closed my BanInter Certificate and am still waiting to be issued with my new Banco Central Certificate. I've applied because I was told this was the only way I would eventually be able to recoup my capital. I've now been waiting two weeks (which I know in this country is nothing), still have no idea when or if the new certificate will be issued, and am told that I won't receive any interest for the interim period, although the bank have my money. As I have read that BanInter is due to be dissolved this coming week, presumably there will be no where to go except Santo Domingo to chase this up. I rely on this interest to live.
Additionally, when I applied for the new certificate, the paper I signed specified a duration of 90 days before I could access my capital. That has now been changed to one year, without any prior consultation and without my signing a new document. BanInter have also refused to give me a photocopy of this document claiming that it is against bank policy to allow copies of "internal documents" to be removed. It was all I could do to be allowed to look at it.
I know we're dealing with the Central Bank and they are probably a law unto themselves, but is what they are doing legal?
