    Default plaza

    Hi...i have to translate the word "plaza" in the following context:

    "Plaza de los cheques para los que se realiza el depósito/redepósito"

    I understand the meaning of the word but I don't know if there's an equivalent in english...What do you think of "zone" "area" "city" ?

    HI danniii,

    I am not sure that plaza can be translated as zone or area in this case. More context would be nice.

    Hi...I have no more context...the word plaza in this context refers to "the place" where the office belongs to. For example, as far as I understand, in Venezuela, different offices of the same bank belong to the same "plaza", which is assigned depending on their location... One bank has several offices which are grouped by "plazas"...any suggestions?

    I think you're talking about a branch. Is that possible, like a bank branch? Oh, I have no idea, really. Maybe Hebe would know.

    Hola Danii. te cuento que nunca había escuchado el término PLaza en ese contexto. Pero como Sandy te dijo, puede referirse a la agencia (branch)
    que donde abrío la cuenta el titular del cheque.

    En otro contexto vi "falta de plaza del cheque: falta de fondos quizás'????

    Siento mucho no haber sido de mucha ayuda. Si averiguo alo mas me comunico

    Saludos

    EXTRA - TEXTRA ULTIMA HORA

    Confirmado Danii y Sandi. La PLaza de un cheque es la agencia donde el emisor del cheque aperturó su cuenta. A qui en Vzla. no le llaman así, pero se da el caso de que por lo general los cheques de sumas muy altas hay que canjearlos en la oficina donde se aperturó la cuenta (Plaza del cheque) .

    Hope this helps
    Regards
