Update: I’m not sure if they’re more sensitive to recent numerous inquiries, or they don’t like me personally, but they turned me down for a second time. I applied last year as well and received the same response.
Unfortunately, we were unable to open the account because of the numerous inquiries performed by other banks within a short period of time. You may be able to open an account in person by visiting any of our conveniently located branches.
Let me know if it works out for you.
