Money talks and BS walks!

Put your money in smaller banks that want your biz!   Charging 3% on the cash coming out of your debit account?   NOT!

"Scotiabank[/url] (Canada and the Caribbean, Caribbean countries include: Anguilla, Antigua & Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Jamaica, Netherlands Antilles (St. Maarten), St. Kitts-Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent & The Grenadines, Trinidad & Tobago, Turks & Caicos Islands, US Virgin Islands)"
It appears that the Mexico branches of Scotiabank have been removed from the list.  But people keep writing as if they were still on the list?

I tried yesterday and was told that there is no waiver, the charge stands.  I guess I got the wrong rep.  I'll try again.

Wonderful first contribution to this thread.  Instead of getting yourself worked up over what I said about English being second, third or even fourth language, why not look at the links provided?  Both here and on TOB, some members have repeatedly proven they do not understand plain everyday English.  And yes, we built a home in the area using a Bank of America account without fees!
