No one makes any mention if the online banking(either pc or smartphone) sites/apps have multi languages or not. In Asia you ALWAYS have a pulldown menu or the local/English tab. What about in CR? Mexico was usually just Spanish, with some subtitles. How language friendly are the various bank sites and apps?
