Not American!

We apologize for the inconvenience, but unfortunately, our specialized app is not authorized to operate or cash checks from your financial center due to a catalog of regionalized legal financial terminology, and therefore, we cannot fulfill a properly personalized vernacular experience.

Unfortunately, this language barrier also prohibits any user dialog about future support for your neighborhood. See ya, buddy! Aluminum!

Fun fact: "-ize" is a valid British spelling (but "-yze", e.g. in "analyze" isn't!)

See https://www.oed.com/dictionary/apologize_v & https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_spelling
