It's not about how easy, or how simple, it's about the customer, but AI assistants lack any human compassion and the agents are no better, if you can get them. I'm just changing my address, I try an hour on hold, hang up, try a different day, a different way, a new number off their webpage to try..

Rerouted to the same Virtual Assistant, constant loops.
SAY how I can help you.
LIVE AGENT, sure, I'll connect you
you can do all your banking through the app, or your online RBC account, then it hangs up

Five tries, one report to the Banking Ombudsman while on my fourth HOLD, and working my way to reviews and Better Business Bureau complaints
Royal Banks is just wasting my time. They don't want to do their own jobs.
If I was near a bank, I'd flip to CIBC Visa because RBC can't get it right.

#Storytime again. #Banking #RBC #Visa COMPLAINTS #Thread
When I was 17, I had a Royal Bank account, my military pay went directly in and usually 3 days before the end of the month. They were unkind to me, so I left them. But I have their VISA but no other RBC account . I don't do online banking or apps.

There was no internet. I still wrote cheques & had a bankbook. I'm OK doing everything on an ATM machine but we don't have any banks or ATMs. I moved in May 2025, and just changed my mailing address today, through threats and hours of my time. I keep getting a virtual assistant telling me to use APP

Back when I got my bills, they always included an envelope for the cheque payment and on the flap, a change of address. They don't send that anymore. I refuse to trust my banking to apps and internet, when every day it's another breach and no banker can explain the encryption they promise

So, I've received another batch of identity-theft spam, targeting #Canada #Canadian #Canadians with #investment -related #IdentityTheft #scams.

The messages direct the target to update their US IRS W-8BEN forms, which require that you enter a bunch of personal information, and are probably stealing login and password and #2FA codes to get access to investment accounts.

Remind your family and friends, especially the elderly and non-tech-savvy folks to NEVER click links in eMails from banks or investment companies.

The targets this week are #TDBank, #NationalBank, but they have previously attempted to impersonate #Questrade and #RBC and #wealthsimple

here's a link to #ryukyubroadcasting #rbc #琉球放送 youtube channel because they don't have a proper site with embedded videos and yes they fell in my esteem when i realised that.
they also mainly show the post-war reconstructed walls instead of the ryukyu kingdom period ones…

Why people hate old banks.

I moved to a new address 3 years ago. All change of addresses have been done.

Now on RBC Express (a business service), they have a separate mailing address, the old one.

When I call the help line for RBC Express: we can't change it, call your branch.

When I call the branch: we can't do it, call RBC Express.

So nobody actually can change my address. The website doesn't let you change it.

I need the address changed for receiving a security token

Great

I'm flabbergasted at the big #Canadian banks' ads during this world series.

#RBC has an ad where a smarmy spokesman says RBC cares about you & then acts like an ass to a woman in a branch & grins cockily at the camera.

#TD has an ad that centers on how comfortable the chairs in their branches are.

That's the caliber of #advertising from some of Canada's richest corporations??

Both these ads are making the case AGAINST banking there.

🤦‍♀️
