Thanks, Alexandre. Wife just got it too (her last one had expired end of July), and very clearly lists all accounts it applies to when you activate.

Tangerine has reduced their One Year and 18 month GIC rates today.
Not surprising as they were pace setting.

Is that the full-text of the "legal stuff" details from Tang? Could someone post the full details? As it looks like you have to activate it first to read the fine print.
Tang is matching the terms of Meridian, I guess to get clients back. Scotiabank plays these games with their complex terms, maybe they will start doing the same with Tang now too.

Actually, it does display all the fine print, before you click activate. Terms look the same to previous promo's,

"Tang is matching the terms of Meridian"
Does this mean that Meridian is also paying 6%?

I should have said, Tang is matching the overall dates for Meridian for 5 months. Meridian is 5.75%.
Its interesting how Tang put in this little speed bump with the 3 days space Oct 1-3. If a person forgot, and left money in, then they would only get 6% interest on more added money.
These types of fine-print details* are seeming more like Scotiabank, but they likely do work on a lot of people who don't pay close attention.

Did not get the promo yet, checked Insights
The promos are definitely algorithmically targeted
Probably since I am already on a 6% promo that ends Feb1, so there is time to get another promo

BTW notice that the TNG 1.5 yr GIC that was at 6% is now being offered at 5.75%
TNG must have pulled in a significant level of investment at the previous rate to LOWER the rate when other FIs are having to do the opposite

Anticipating more deposit rate volatility when we see headlines like:
Bank Deposits Drop Year-Over-Year for First Time Ever

As of Monday, both my Wife and I had drained our Tang SAs, down to $1 & change. And now today we both received this same offer from Tang (see Alexandre's Post #1 above ).

So now we go back, and redeposit all our SA $$$ back again into our Tang SAs.

I think we should call it; "The Tangerine SA Shuffle" ... LOL sf-laugh

I bought one on Oct 2. I was going to buy another today but ...

I called to make the Oct 2 joint. 46 minutes on hold then 15 minutes in a 3-way conversation to do the joint thing.

That's my last Tangerine GIC until they simply this.

I bought 3 joint GIC's online in 5 minutes at Oaken all in one application last Friday. That's a streamlined process, although it took 2 days to actually see the GIC's.

Is your thinking that by not taking it, you will then get a new one sometime in Jan which will extend further?

Cleared my Tang account on October 1st, after September interest was deposited. Shifted to Manulife for 5% until late November. Now I have the 6% Tang offer to February 29th so I'll be shifting back. Unless I've missed something I can't use Interac with Tang so I'll Interac $ from Manulife to my BMO checking account, then request the transfer to Tang. Sigh. But first I'll do the calculations and see if it's really worth the bother......sf-confused

Would recommend checking your account register, and also with Tang, to see what they have posted as your end of day balance on Oct 3.
