I just got off the phone with the wire department at SKANAB — they called me ...

The lady at SKANAB wanted to verify the bank routing and account number from the form. I had sent a HTML copy of their form that was typewritten. Apparently she did not have access to that and only the handwritten one I had sent them (my handwriting is not so great), thus the reason for the call I assume.

Just to give you a time line;

1.) The documents to be verified were submitted October 12, 2010.

2.) There was some communication between myself and the bank (privileged communication that I will not disclose).

3.) I received email notification with the wire form documents Thursday October 28, 2010 after business hours and returned them completed Friday October 29, 2010.

4.) Wednesday November 03, 2010 I received an email saying that they were "finalizing" the wire transfer.

5.) And then the news of today.

The conversation ended in confirmation that the wire would be actually sent Monday November 08, 2010.
