buzoo bro

I have not called the presidents office but i called scotia bank helpline... they said it takes upto 10 weeks for the money to get refunded which is just ridiculous and they transfer me to GIC student department but we can not speak to anyone there and can just leave a msg. I Left a msg on their voicemail 2-3 times but nothing has happened so far....i am just scared weather they will refund my money or not? any luck with u bro?

hey guys,

even my visa was rejected and I had applied for a refund some where in the month on December.

I got a reply back today that my application cannot be processed further because my swift code is wrong. :/ and I have to apply with a bloody fresh application..

iDK what they mean by swift code Is wrong. I gave them all the details according to my bank.

my bank - Vijaya bank, says they can only transfer the amount into my account through their account held with bank of Montreal, which will in turn forward to my vijaya bank account here in India.

Could this be the problem ? because they cannot deposit directly into my account and have to go through my bank's own account held with bank of Montreal?
