Just caught up with your presentations and so impressed with you and your guest. Concerning Ryan’s banking comment, I want to share this.
I am an at risk senior who is unwell and would do everything with internet banking if the bank allowed it. Way before my due date payment, I tried several ways to pay my Bank of Butterfield credit card bill from my HSBC Bermuda account to find out the bank would not allow this. I was just about fit enough to go to the bank last week Friday,April 25th.
I have had this Butterfield CC for over 10 years and have never had a late payment, but because of HSBC/Butterfield not allowing me to make my payment, I have been charged a late payment fee. As you can see if the bank was more cooperative, I would have never have this late charge and will never have to go to a bank. When I called Bank of Butterfield call centre, a foreigner answered and said I would have to speak to someone in Bermuda, Friday today, May 1st.
