 BMO Bank & other Canadian banks info
It was almost impossible to add my Bmo bank to my paypal account since I did not have any checks. I even called customer support but they were no help but after gogleing I found how to add it to your paypal account. I did the following:
Follow these instructions on adding a Canadian Bank account.
#1. Bank name.
Very simple: Bank of Montreal
#2. Transit Number
Take your original transit number, and add this that the bottom.
say your tansit number is 1234, and you live in Western Quebec, so you take "1234" and you add a 1 to the end of the transit making it "12341".
