This is what I have always done. I have also gotten a lot of useful info from the banks themselves. But like martian pointed out, I was wondering about the 60 days statement, because it seemed to come from a knowledgable source. 60 days contradicts what the banks have told me. Thats why I was wondering what drbond meant? was he referring to one particular bank (he doesn't have to share the name if that is confidential) or all banks?
So, we have 2 choices here: (1) we can have a civilized discussion about this, or (2) the likes of dudemon and happy can say stuff like "just do a search," "you just don't get it," and 'you can't ask questions until you have given to the FT community'
I would prefer option (1)
