HISA promotion account lists? and more than 4.8%? | General comparisons | Discussion forum

Hi, is there a promotional list of HISA accounts on this site?
E.g. the promotional rate for Tangerine HISA is 4.8% but HISA rates here show in the 3% range.

Also, do you know of any other HISA that is more than 4.8%?  

CIBC 4.9%

You'll be hard pressed to find anyone offer 5% or more these days.

Thanks.

So promo hisa list is not available on this forum? That is unintuitive.  

You'll find them amongst all the other offers listed in the Promos tab ( top right ).
Not a list per say, but grouped, probably because they are temporary and not easy to keep track of as they come and go, unlike the HISA chart which tends to stay somewhat static other than when the BoC adjusts its lending rate.

I never really noticed the PROMO Tab before. Duh !
so now I'm trying to understand how the content works.

Q. Would one of the Admins normally replace the out of date promos with new ones or remove them when they are expired, at some point ?

Eg. Replace CIBC promo [4mths, 5%], 7th bullet down ...
with this one [3mths, 4.90%] >> https://www.cibc.com/en/special-offers/smart-savings-bonus-interest.html?itrc=M797:1
