Kevin Rotenberg just got the rate sheet for next week and rates are dropping significantly. 1-yr to 5% from 5.35% and worse. If you want something, you better get it to him today.  

Not surprised - we know rates have plateaued and have started to go lower. I noted earlier in the week that Scotiabank GIC rates on iTrade site have dropped to 1 year 4.9, 2 year, 4.44, 3 year 4.27, 4 year 4.17, 5 year 4.12. Just recently 1 year Scotiabank on iTrade site was @ 5.05%. Highly likely that rates from other FIs will also be under 5% by end of February. HISA rates also likely have peaked.

Got my request into GWealth just under the wire. Had to ask DUCA to do a direct pull from my HSBC account. Hope that it goes through. I'm just glad that DUCA is willing to take a direct withdrawal with a void cheque, as a paper cheque would not have arrived in time. As I understand it, not many institutions are willing to accommodate purchasers by allowing direct withdrawal of funds.

I think that he was quoting for my situation in Alberta. The Y1 5.53% rate is not available to me.

[edit] My mistake. I called and he was able to get me 5.53% for 1-yr with East Coast CU.
