Bank statement print-out
I have a fairly simple question arising from a fairly annoying situation.
I am currently in Canada, I have a Canadian bank account but my main account is in
Euros and not from a Canadian bank. I need to have a bank statement, essentially stating how much funds I have in that account and this is to act as a “proof of funds” for future apartment rental.
Can a different bank provide me with a bank statement? I can get receipts from ATMs but a bank print-out is more ‘official’. Also, online banking is not available for me.
If anyone has a solution to this dilemma, please let me know!
Thank you in advance.
If you banked with a credit union, that’s also a part of a co-op then yes, this can be a possibility. In the United States, I bank with a certain credit union and I’ve been able to have transactions happen at other credit unions that participate in the same co-op network. However, other than that, private banks do not have access to other banks accounts and therefore cannot verify your accounts and balances.
I don’t think that is ever possible. How can another bank verify and provide a statement for some other where they don’t have access to your account?
If you have online access to your bank account (net-banking, online banking etc), then there will be a section where you can find the statement (generally in pdf format). Those statements also bear the bank logo etc and would definitely be legitimate. That’s how I get my statement. In fact, when I went to get statement for a year for my BofA account some time back, they also did exactly this (printed monthly pdf statements for last 1 year).
