RE:Stinky mess & sinking BNS ship - sell, sell, sellA few years ago I stumbled onto some old travellers cheques I had bought in the 90's. BNS were the only ones who still handled redeeming them. They were very helpful and pleasant at my local branch. That's the only experience I'v had with them. I deal with TD a lot. The frontline workers at the branch level are also very helpful. You never, ever want to deal with anyone behind the scenes at TD. They hide behind their anonymity and operate on a work to rule basis only.
