What support for the Spicers!!! - over 500 people !!!
I just looked at the petition and was stunned - it appears the Spicers have very significant support with already over 500 people that have signed an on line petition to support the Spicers in this terrible case exposing cibc fcib allegedlt significant wrong doing and also supporting their adviser's plans for a Banking Ombudsman for the Bahamas, so as to protect all Bahamians from these types of situations.
Over 500 people have signed the on line petition since it started - which it looks like was on or around March 3rd....
I hear there is now a Town Hall meeting this weekend on Abaco to discuss the public outcry with the way the banks are treating Bahamians, with other upset bank customers coming forward as well....
Over 500 people so quickly? Looks like the community is really behind the Spicers and that the banks operating here have really upset a lot of their customers...
As a former banker from a G8 country I know that banking has to be sustainable and in alignment with the long term needs of the civil society in which it operates, for both the banks and the society/ country to benefit.
Yet the recent concerns of ridiculous spreads on interest rates and the negligence and arguably much more serious wrong doing exposed by the Malcolm Spicer case shows to just blame Bahamians is not only one sided but not in the banks' interest either.
Now that the Spicer lawyers at meridian law chambers, and before them callenders, have filed publicly available affidavits revealing potentially very serious wrong doing, including raising the question of a bank lying under oath - it has to be time to reset this discussion to have a more sobre and realistic appraisal of how to make Bahamian society grow sustainably.
The Spicer case how now led to approaching 500 people signing the petition for better treatment form the banks in just a couple of weeks
As a former customer of FCIB, like so many Bahamians, I know how bad this bank has become. The errors on my account were just like this one - basic maths wrong, negligence all followed by denial. So to read this account just shows it's still ongoing.
I read Gary Brown the new CEO of FCIB wants every customer to have a great story to tell so why is it this chap Spicer has over 200 signatures saying how bad this is? Rumour in Abaco he has leading law firms all helping as the bank is so caught in the headlights on this one...
CIBC if you are reading this there is something very wrong at FCIB and how this Canadian bank is treating Bahamians.
