I don't think Tang has ever announced these things but they are clear about it on their statements.

Recently, I have been checking rates on all savings accounts daily as a precaution against surprises.

I see that Tangerine is offering 0.4% now on savings account.

Amazingly, Tangerine still honors its "special offer" for those who got it. Mine is 2.75% till June 30, still stays even with new regular interest rate of 0.4% already posted under Account Details.

I was being sarcastic about the notification. I give kudos to the banks/credit unions who do keep it all on the up and up by readily announcing their rate changes. We all are being extra diligent at this time looking at rates but one never enjoys a nasty surprise that rates dropped weeks ago and one did not realize.

Why would anyone keep money with Tangerine at this point? Between myself, my wife and my mother we all have offers till May 31st. I must admit I am worried that Tangerine will pull something along the way. For come June 1st or earlier all money will be fleeing Tangerine.

You could call them, but I think if you had 2000$ in your account when the promotion was offered, you will gain the new interest on anything over 2000$. You can take it out and put it back in, but the new interest will only apply to anything over 2000$

Just realized it is now only 2.50% on the *first* Tangerine account on the landing page ... pretty sure it was 2.75% before  

The 2.80% New Client Interest Rate Offer (the “Offer”) is available to new Tangerine Clients whose Client Number with the Bank was created between April 1, 2020 and July 30, 2020.

Thanks for the notification Tangerine....NOT!  

To my knowledge, banks don't notify when they change their interest rate.

On Tangerine rates page:

«Interest rates are subject to change without notice.»
