We have our credit cards!!!!!! They have been activated and they work!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have one week left of our stay in France. It took 71 days from the day we walked into the BNP Paribas bank to open an account to the time we took possession of our credit cards. Actually these are not credit cards, they're debit cards. It's not like we were borrowing money from the bank or anything, we just wanted to have normal access to our own money.
To anyone planning on a stay in France I urge you, DO NOT do business with the BNP Paribas bank. In case you didn't read the previous post(s), it also took 5 weeks before we were able to get hold of our checkbook. Our only means of access to our own money was to physically go to the bank and withdraw our money. When you consider that they open at 9 AM, take a 2-hour lunch break, and close at 5 PM...
Now I will hunt for santons on eBay.
