in my case I went into branch and saw my advisor first,
he took photocopy of bank draft, and advised he would do whatever he had to do to activate the offer.
He then told me to go to teller and deposit bank draft.
That was Friday.
Now Tuesday, 1st attempt for chat online , stated they do not see an offer.
2nd attempt for chat online, different person, they stated they say they see notation that there is an offer, but no details available.
I emailed my advisor asking for confirmation and his response was,"Offer for 4.8% is approved, will take some time to reflect the start/end date, will update soon.
The offer has a balance cap of $2,000,000."I don't like the way they are not being clear about this transaction.
I hope the interest rate is effective the day I deposited funds. I am a bit worried.
I know what you mean. Pretty confusing. According to my advisor, I will be earning a total of 4.6% for the 90 days. But now when I look up my e-savings it says
" you are now eligible for smart account interest which doesn't remotely seem like the same thing. Anybody else dealing with this?

Targeted offer I think*For new funds deposited into existing eAdvantage Savings Accounts with balances above $100,000 on or before March 27, 2026, earn a total interest rate of 4.80% (which is made up of the 0.60% posted interest rate plus a 4.20% bonus interest rate) for 90 days following the date of deposit. For new funds deposited into existing eAdvantage Savings Accounts with balances equal to or below $100,000 on or before March 27, 2026, earn a total interest rate of 4.50% (which is made up of the 0.30% posted interest rate plus a 4.20% bonus interest rate) for 90 days following the date of deposit. Interest is calculated daily on each day’s full closing balance and paid monthly to the eAdvantage Savings Account. For deposits received after March 27, 2026, only regular interest will continue to apply.
Is this generally the case for all/other offer recipients that the bonus interest rate only applies for funds deposited on or before March 27, 2026?

Colour me confused.
So, is it 4.50% or 4.80% or both?

looked at interest for March,
It appears they did not give me interest for the 7 day hold on funds.
I had met with advisor in branch and gave him bank draft.
Am I not entitled to interest from day of deposit.?

As an existing customer, I received the 4.5% on my deposit.
Even though my CSR e-mailed me with the offer, I needed to phone/e-mail him accepting the offer. I didn't know this but I left a message with him anyway to say that I had made a deposit into my e-advantage account. He e-mailed back to say he will activate the offer and I would receive interest after a 48 hour period. So I didn't make any interest on those first 48 hours.
He also said that for the next 90 days I would receive the 4.5% on any new deposits i.e. not to worry about the March deadline.
Because I am so wary of them, I deposited another $1100 on 1st of April and will wait until end of Month to see if I indeed do receive that interest. I have a substantial amount of funds currently in Tangerine @3.75% until end of April. We'll see what CIBC does at that time with the extra $1100 before I transfer in the Tangerine funds.
Raining here. Hope everyone has a lovely Easter Weekend!!
