Tip: This branch has three ABMs…read more On Saturday, I was at Bayview Village Shopping Centre. Bloomer's has changed locations. It used to be by the mall entrance with Scotiabank. It's now next to CIBC at that mall entrance. It's cool that the banks are by mall entrances. You don't have to kill yourself walking into the mall to do your banking. I noticed three ABMs when I left Bloomer's to head to my car. The area was clean and had decent lighting. The branch was open for teller services and more. I liked that there weren't any lineups. It's a decent branch if you're looking to do banking while you're shopping at the mall or you want to quickly dash in to use an ABM. There's lots of parking, but parking does fill up faster on Saturdays. (275)

Since this CIBC is in Bayview Village, it has to be excessive. Well, it is. If you consider three…read moreATMs excessive. The bankers can be hit or miss. Some are nice and friendly and others are nice and snobby. But it's Bayview Village, so if you're all sad from a mean banker, you can just go to the Loblaws and buy yourself a nice big tub of ice cream. sshhhwwwingg.

Tips: - The three ABMs in the lobby have the same hours of…read moreoperation as the branch. - If you are looking to bank using an ABM after the branch has closed, use the drive-thru ABM, which is open 24 hours a day. On Wednesday evening, I was in the area. I needed to deposit some cash. I spotted this Scotiabank. Perfect! I normally hit the drive-thru, which this branch has. For some reason, I was possessed to park my car in the parking area in front of this branch and walk in to use one of the ABMs. Bad move. I looked at the two signs on the branch's door. There was one sign for ABM hours of operation. I looked at the branches hours of operation. Both were identical. What a bummer. I guess that if you don't have a car and need to use the ABM, you can just walk up to the drive-thru one to do your banking. You just need to exercise caution that you are sharing the drive-thru with vehicles. I got back into my car and hit the drive-thru. It appeared that you have Cantonese support at this branch when it's open, as some of its services were written in both English and Cantonese. I pulled up to the ABM. I would have been sad if the ABM was not operational and I couldn't use any of the ABMs in the branch when it's closed. Luckily, the drive-thru one was working. I have a Tangerine debit card, so I can use it at any Scotiabank to do my banking. I had my bills deposited to my chequing account. Done! It was nice dropping by. It's a shame that you can't use the ABMs in the branch after the bank has closed for the day. At least there's the drive-thru ABM that's available. (270)

Beware if you do banking at this location. Ensure they log out of your account once your…read moretransaction is complete. We did some banking with the teller this afternoon. Two hours later we notice a debit of $720 entitled 'mortgage payment'. We knew this was an error as we had just paid our mortgage a few days ago, as well, this amount was completely different to our usual payment. We call the Scotia hotline and are told there is nothing they can do, we need to go to the branch. Drive all the way over there to be told 'sorry, its human error. The teller accidentally paid someone's mortgage from your account after you left as the account wasn't logged out of'. Um, what? You're a bank and you can't ensure that you log out of patrons accounts before completing the next transaction. A complete waste of our evening rectifying this. I understand, to an extent, human error, but this is just idiocy and scary to think of how many people get fleeced by such 'errors'

Tip: The branch isn't open on weekends…read more I have passed by this CIBC countless times en route to Walmart, Great Clips, or Dollar Tree. I decided to check it out on a Saturday afternoon after I had got a haircut at Great Clips and then did some grocery shopping at Walmart. This CIBC has a drive-thru. I used it to check my balance. I don't do a whole lot of banking with CIBC these days, but I do have an account. It was straightforward entering it. Deposits are envelope-free at this ATM. You can withdraw CAD or USD, depending on your needs. It's similar to the CIBC ATMs that are at Pearson International Airport. It's nice that the bank has opened it up to more ATMs that aren't at the airport. This branch is closed on weekends. You can still go into the branch to use the ATMs if you won't want to do the drive-thru. Regular banking hours are from 9:30 am till 5 pm on weekdays. The branch has accessible parking, which allows a wheelchair to go up a shallow ramp to the main doors. There's a button that opens both doors for access into and out of the branch. There is plenty of parking around the building. I parked in the back aisle to take a look at the branch before I left. I'm glad that I took a closer look at this bank. It was nice to not drive away like I normally do. It's good to know that this CIBC exists. (218)

I had some cash that I needed to deposit. This Scotiabank is the closest branch to my workplace. I…read morealso frequent the plaza in which this bank is located. This plaza also has a Shoppers Drug Mart and a Longo's. I drove over there late on Saturday morning, just before catching a flight. The parking lot has crazy drivers. Hey, there's a stop sign! What do they do? They drive right through it. Nice! Anyway, I parked and headed inside. I was shocked to see a purple ABM. Typically, Scotiabank ABMs are red. I will likely do my banking here more often because I like anything purple. And, yes, I made my deposit at the purple one. It went well. The ABMs are envelope-free. They are smart enough to count cash denominations accurately. I was pleased that this branch was open on a Saturday. It's a small one, but I liked how staff said hi when I walked in. It's nice to talk to humans. (487)

I've been to this location since 1981. It used to be home home branch until around 1998; I moved my…read morehome branch closer to where I live. They had very nice staff, who remember me. In Fall 2018, they renovated the inside to be very modern! There are no longer any tellers, but only advisors. They also made it wheelchair accessible from the office tower entrance. There are two bank machines at the main entrance, open 24h/day; unfortunately this is not wheelchair accessible when the branch is closed. There is free WiFi. The bank is wheelchair accessible. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-159

Disappointing Service Friction and Process Errors…read more On March 25th, I requested a straightforward fund switch through the investment mutual fund CIBC/SIMPLII FINANCIAL call center. Despite reviewing the Fund Facts with the agent, the trade was processed incorrectly. It took until first week of May and over three hours of my time spread over March, April and May on multiple phone calls to resolve this, as I was forced to navigate a one-way communication system where I could not call agents back directly. Despite the now compounding complications due to impacting three funds I hold, the supervisor demonstrated professionalism to his best ability given the circumstances; however, the resolution process involved significant and avoidable friction. Being told there was confusion from both parties about my own instructions, only for them to to find out about their own error, was particularly a let down. I value my relationship with CIBC, but the administrative burden placed on the client to fix a bank error was significant. I am hoping CIBC takes this feedback seriously to improve their internal records and communication accessibility. I am prepared to update this rating once CIBC demonstrates proper service recovery and accountability for this significant loss of personal time and effort.

This RBC Royal Bank branch has been here for eons. Within the last year, it was closed for renovations. Frankly, I feared that it was closed for good. However, my parents do their banking here and their was no change made to their branch. Yay! When my parents bought their current home decades ago, my dad switched banks from TD (before it merged with Canada Trust) to this RBC. Their account is a joint one for expenses, but it's my dad's main one. One main reason why they chose this account is that their mortgage at the time was with this bank. They paid it off many moons ago. They felt comfortable banking here because staff spoke in English and Cantonese. Mandarin-speaking staff are also available. I come here occasionally to use the ATM. There is customer parking around the building. This branch has two ATMs. It can get busy if you're here during peak hours. I tend to be here during off-peak hours and haven't hand any issues. There is a night deposit box. This branch also has safety deposit boxes. You may want to call for availability if you need one. This building has a few floors. This RBC specializes in customer banking services and co-located corporate services, such as RBC Dominion Securities, which is on the fifth floor. It's not a corporate office. It's a cool branch. I'm glad that it's still around. (326)

Tip: This branch has no drive-thru ATM…read more When I was an undergraduate student at York University, I was able to apply for a York University TD Visa card. The credit card's limit was low (it was either $300 or $500 initially), but it was my first credit card and I felt like I was an adult! To make a payment on my credit card, I had to visit a TD branch to pay with the help of a teller. It was before telephone banking came into the picture. After class, I would walk over to the TD branch that used to be on the southeast corner of Keele Street and Steeles Avenue West. This branch's old location shuttered years ago. It seems to have been under construction for that length of time ever since. I don't have a clue what's going on. This TD Canada Trust branch opened diagonally across the intersection, on the northwest corner. It looks impressive when you approach it. This branch houses three service divisions in one: - TD Canada Trust - TD Commercial Banking - TD Wealth If you are doing regular banking, this branch does not have a drive-thru. There is plenty of parking around the building and a ramp for those who require a ramp to enter. There are two Green Machine ATMs in the branch, in the lobby area. It's spacious. I do not have any TD products anymore. The relationship between York University and TD was dissolved. I ended up cancelling my credit card, but it helped me establish credit and strengthen my credit history. I pass by this branch often when I am taking backroads home after work. I see both the old and new branches, which makes me both nostalgic and optimistic, respectively. (128)
