August1991 Posted February 28, 2024 Report Posted February 28, 2024 I recently tried to do a bank transaction. Online, I had to enter several passwords. Eventually, I realised the transaction was not possible online (the passwords were good). I went to the branch/succursale. The teller checked my card. The teller could not access my specific account. The teller set a meeting with a bank advisor. I met the advisor in person. The advisor explained that she could not do anything - I would have to phone. So, I phoned. On the 1-800 number, a woman with a strong accent, after asking numerous personal questions, solved half my problem. ===== This is very costly and wrong. Canada used to be a society where people trusted one another. Quote
August1991 Posted February 28, 2024 Author Report Posted February 28, 2024 Please understand. My Newfoundland grandfather negotiated a deal to buy a schooner. He hired fishermen on a handshake - they shared the catch on the Labrador coast. ===== I far prefer this modern world. Quote

Trudeau seize your account? I did not contribute to their cause. I generally agreed with the Trucker's Freedom Convoy. The federal government did not seize my accounts. ===== My OP was about trust. And trust me, we Canadians - unlike Lutheran Scandinavians - have a different way to think of trust. Edited March 1, 2024 by August1991 1 Quote
