Alright so my bank sucks, doesn't have a SWIFT code, and requires me to use Scotia Banks SWIFT code, then they issue a bank draft to my bank.

Obviously a lot of hassle which I don't want to go through. I'm an affiliate too so I make frequent withdrawals.

So I figure I will sign up with a new bank. I won't be using it for internet banking or anything like that - the one I am with has hot rates so I stick with them. But it'll be to accept withdrawals from moneybookers et al, then just use my debit card to withdraw. I live downtown Kingston and have most banks at my disposal(Bank of Montreal, CIBC, Scotia, TD etc) so any recommendations would be appreciated.

I really don't think it matters much what bank you use, I'd be more concerned with the level of account activity you plan on. Figure out the number of deposits/withdrawals and find the account plan that's cheapest.

I use Scotia, no real loyalty, I just ended up there. They made the wire transfer process easy to MB, I can't speak for anywhere else.

You might also want to consider the credit cards that are accepted at gaming sites to help you choose the bank. If RBC, as mentioned earlier, doesn't accept gaming CC transactions (and you want a CC and account at the same place for convenience sake, that is) then you may want to look at the other ones.

So that's my really long winded explanation for; go with the cheapest and most convenient. lol

Hope it was helpful.
