Your post #197 -I'm not clear what you're asking.
I think he's griping about how they don't pay interest the way everyone else does. I'm pretty confident the answer is no without even asking Simplii.

Do I have to keep ALL the money in the account on Feb 28 , to get the bonus rate in March ?
Or can I withdraw before that say Feb 26 or Feb 27 and still be eligible for the bonus 2 % in approximately second week of March, from this current 3 % promo Simplii is having from November 1 - February 28.
I am guessing withdrawing 1-2 days early won't affect the promo, besides me getting 1-2 days of less interest.

This is how PC Financial had extended their previous NEW deposit promo by 2 months more.
Hopefully Simplii does the same by 2 months more, so no need to enroll again & its automatic.
NOTE : This is for PC Financial
" Great news. You’re already enrolled and are currently enjoying 2%* interest on new deposits into your President’s Choice Financial® Interest Plus savings account until August 31, 2017. As an added benefit, you will earn 2.5%* interest on those deposits plus any new deposits from September 1 until October 31, 2017"

Hey rfdm4g4g9:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but, I don't believe you are reading this correctly- I expect you have to withdraw your money or you will only get the going rate- NOTE they speak of new deposits getting 2 or 2.5%, NOT your present deposits.

Hank, read what you cited again: "As an added benefit, you will earn 2.5%* interest on those deposits plus any new deposits from September 1 until October 31, 2017"

No, my money's on its way out because as of now I've no idea if there will or there won't be another offer and I don't want 1.1% starting March 1. Not too hard to move some back if a good offer comes along.

Simplii extends its promo to June 30-2018, but only by 2.5 % and not 3 %
Getting an exclusive rate of 2.50% couldn’t be easier: simply enroll now and starting March 1, 2018, you’ll earn interest on eligible deposits made between November 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018*. That means you’ll earn interest on deposits you’ve already made – plus on new deposits!

Kinda predictable if they were going to do anything. The key question, when do they actually pay all interest, (a) on funds up to Feb 28, (b) on qualifying balances as at March 31, April 30, May 31 and finally June 30.

Another question, perhaps for the Tang forum but applicable to most of us here at this time, will Tang extend their May 31 2 1/2% deal to June 30 or beyond?

Hey rfdm4g4g9:
Did you get the above in a special e-mail to yourself- when I asked via e-mail, they said they had no information about it- that I should call in.....

Just got through to Simpli. The extension is a targeted one, not everybody will get it but if you do you will get an email or notice they said.

Looks like its targeted. Some people have got it & others at least so far are yet to get it.

Some people already have that 2.5 % offer from Tangerine till June 30.
The people who accepted/activated that offer in January got it till May 31.
And the people who refused to accept/activate that offer in January were presented with the same exact offer gain in February from Feb 6 - June 30.

Received an email from Simplii today indicating my 3% teaser rate through Feb. 28 will be changed to 1.75% beginning Mar. 1. Mentioned to a good friend of mine and stated he received a similar email indicating they offered him a rate of 2.5% beginning Mar. 1 - both through end of June.
I was a little miffed so I called Simplii to inquire. They stated it was a random process as to who was offered the higher rates and they could NOT give me the higher rate. I pushed them further stating that both my friend and I had deposited the same amount of cash (just shy of the maximum allowed under the offer) and we both deposited the funds at roughly the same time. No dice!
I indicated I would be moving my funds on March 1 (including interest as soon as it is paid out) and would NEVER return... to Simplii or CIBC. The agent on the phone offered me $100 to ease the pain. I stated this would not make a difference in my decision. I'll take the $100 and run!
At the same time I was fighting back and forth with Simplii, I noticed that Tangerine has a 2.5% teaser rate for 182 days as long as you deposit your money before May 31. Looks like they will be my next stop.

For the $100, I would let them know that I will leave up to $40,000 with them.
The $100 works out to be an extra ¾% per annum on $40,000 for the four months, March 1 to end of June. Adding the 1.75% interest offered, the result is 2½%!

Lookingforyield. I have 237,713 currently at Simplii. I called today, was told I will get the regular posted rate, and that if I would be getting a separate rate, they will contact me. What slap in the face. I did nothing to that count but add to it regularly, never withdrew once it called them bargaining for more.
My cash is outta here
