If anyone can please help me! I opened a bank account many years ago and I have been a perma-tourist in Argentina for many years. I opened a bank account a long time ago with Banco de la Nacion. I recently wasn't able to pay some bills for an apartment that I have here. I thought it was just the banking App so I went to the bank and I was shocked to learn that they have disabled bill pay and the ability to transfer to alias or CBU #. Basically my account is now worthless other than to just take out funds from their ATM machines or deposit money into it.
They say there is a new law that anyone with no DNI number the banks are forced to shut off bill pay feature. This makes NO sense to me. Why wouldn't they just shut down my account? It seems like they are limiting the ability to take out money instantly. Now when I am in the USA (I only spend 4 months a year here), I can't pay my bills for my apartment!
Does anyone have any work around solution for this? Did this happen to other people? Does anyone know why suddenly they would do something like this after being ok for many years?
Is there any other solution that doesn't require a DNI #? I signed up with my Passport and I think CDI # many years ago. Help!!!
