TD is very nice. I also used Bank of China draft, I was charged almost 50 us$ service fee excluded 50RMB in China, CIBC eplained that was charged by Bank of China, and Bank of China did not have a toll free number. I don`t know whom I should blame on.

我收到中国银行多伦多分行的邮件和我解释为什么收我的费用。由于缺乏银行专业知识,实再难以看懂,但是好像可以不交支票解冻的费用的。有没有那位了解的呢?谢谢。

Thank you for your E Mail, pls be advised that the $40.00 is the flat charges for clean bill collection charges, if CIBC only send for clearing of the draft and do not send for collection, then there will be NO charge at all.

I have been vancouver. I transferred the money using the draft that issued by CIBC and ICBC (工商银行). The second day I went to CIBC open the account, no extra service fee, and money got into your saving account within 2 working days, I believe that's best way to move money to canada so far.
As to credit car, no problem you can apply, CIBC will approve at a minum credit limits, I have CAD 500. so very simple, just go ahead.
