No @ScotiabankJM I Will Not Email the Issue I JUST Described
*sigh* Companies stay pissing me off on Twitter. The issue: I’ve been unable to log in to Scotiabank’s iPhone app for a few weeks. They are pretty active on Twitter so I thought I would reach out to them and see what they had to say. The conversation: @stacyannhayles Hi there. We’d like to look […]
