I have their online version from Canadian Direct Financial and the rate has been the same for the last 2 years.

Transferring TFSA monies from PC Financial was a SERVICE
CHARGE of $50 without any notice and to get confirmation
I had to pay $16.50 for a letter from PC Bank showing the charge.
The old account was immediately not accessible to verify actions.

CANADIAN DIRECT Bank when told of the PC Bank charge
REFUNDED ME THE FULL $50 and Deposited it within 3 days.
I can confirm that the 3% rate has not changed in months.

Canadian Western Bank has had this 3.04% rate for at least two years…

If you want to transfer your TFSA from another bank, go first to Canadian Western Bank and they will extract your TFSA from your old bank and transfer it over. ie. They do the work for you!
