GIC account with Scotia Bank

[ZaraZ]

Hello Friends,

I have deposited money to my account from my home bank in Pakistan and the bank accidentally sent the money in USD. Scotiabank reject the funds but this was back Nov 7th. I still have not received the funds back in my account so I can send them again. It has been over 1.5 months. I have called the Scotia bank help line for GIC every week and they keep telling me they are investigating. I have no idea where my money is and when it will be returned. Has this happened to anyone else and if so how long did it take you to get your money back. I am very worried please help

Pressurise your native bank which did the mistake. however I applied via CIBC and they offer you the liberty to choose the currency you want to wire transfer in

Thank you so much for your speedy reply. I have spoken to both my native and their head office as well as scotia bank and they keep giving me the run around. At this point I just want my money back
