Scotiabank

Friendly staff and always ready to sever you with all your banking needs.

Like wasting your time.
Tons of back and forth on paperwork.

"We can sign off on documents" "Oh sorry we can't do that we don't do that very often" "Government says we can do that? Not sure about that.."

Left TD and went here, truly amazing from the first meeting with Nash she made us fill as we were already long time customers.
Hands down the best bank we have dealt with our kids will open their first banks here

I went to put a cheque in at this branch. The first thing she says is we are going to have to put a hold on the cheque. I inform her it says right on my account that there is no holds on the account. I also inform her I've worked for the company for 10 years so there's no reason it should be held anyway. She then asks me if it is a USD cheque. Wouldn't the fact that it has a Canadian address give her a clue? As a teller shouldn't you be able to distinguish Canadian cheques from USA cheques? I tell her no it is a Canadian cheque. She then starts telling me about a totally different company I work for from the USA. She then tells me it says here you work for a USA company. I inform her I work both for Canadian and USA companies. At this point I'm totally frustrated with her and take back the cheque. I tell her I'll go elsewhere. So now I have to go somewhere else to put my cheque in. A big inconvenience for me. I dont get another day off until Sunday and Scotiabank is not open then. I now have to wait for 1 week to put in.the bank! Maybe I'll put it in at the instabank. That way I won't have to deal with hellacious tellers. It was a young East Indian woman. I've dealt with other employees at this branch who were very proficient at their job. It wasn't the case this time.

I always come to this Scotiabank because there is hardly anyone here around noon. Great service
