					                        <description><![CDATA[<p>I don't think that has current RBC DI rates.  The page says it was last updated April 24, almost two months ago.</p>
<p>The best one-year and five-year GIC rates at BMO InvestorLine are 3.33% and 3.95%.  In contrast, that page says RBC DI's best for one-year and five-year are 3.25% and 3.76%.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.rbcwealthmanagement.com/en-ca/dominion-securities/cash-and-margin-rates">RBC Dominion Securities cash and margin rates</a> has a link to a <a href="https://rbcwealthmanagement.bynder.com/m/2842bcc7925bc6a2/original/GIC-Rates.pdf">June 19 GIC rates PDF</a> that seems more current.</p>

This one shows the highest rates in each duration, although it doesn't say which FI provides any particular rate.</s></p>

					                        <description><![CDATA[<p>Aside from the special case of advantaging their own GICS, I suspect that issuer rates are the same all over the discount brokerage channel, although not all brokerages offer all issuers.  So some issuer(s) offering at the very tippy top of the rates might not be available at some brokers.</p>

Thank you, Briguy and NorthernRaven.   If I can transfer $25K a day that would work for me, just take a few days for anything I'd want to do, I'm never in that much of a hurry.   </p>
<p>I didn't even know about TD Easy Trade, it appears to be part of TDDI but looks very good for those who want to do basic stock trades via phone app.  </p>

<p>You get 100 free trades a year on TD Easy Trade and no low balance or yearly fees. One main downside is that it's only available as a phone app, so you don't get the luxury of seeing it on a bigger screen, the other main downside is that you can only trade ETFs or stocks, not bonds or mutual funds or GICs.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>I bill-paid from Tangerine to a TDDI account# a couple of years ago, it is suggested by TDDI agents, worked without issue, and the funds would count for any open transfer promotion you might be registered for.</p>
<p>I think Tangerine had something like a $20-$25K maximum on bill payments, that might vary by customer, and I'm not sure if that is per day or per bill payment.  But Tangerine customer service can do a larger one for you, I think.</p>

But I don't have TDDI so can't test it out. If there is no bill pay function to get money into TDDI directly that is a serious deficiency, since not everyone wants to have a TD account.</p>
