My parents have been customers with BMO for almost 50 years, and never have they received such HORRENDOUS, DISRESPECTFUL service as they did today at the Brossard, Lapinière branch.
When in frustration after a 30-minute wait in line (which at least 4 other people abandoned without raising a fuss) my father called out openly to ask for more service people, the manager finally emerged from her office and yelled in a RUDE, DEROGATORY, CONFRONTATIONAL tone: "Parlez-moi français!" (Speak to me in French.) We are accustomed to receiving bilingual service at this branch, and have no issue waiting longer when on rare occasions only unilingual francophone CSRs are available.
