    What do you like about this bank / credit union?: Its a B lender bank

    What could be improved about this bank / credit union?: Their policies and interest rate adjustment.

    General comments: Please careful dealing with this bank. They have lot of hidden charges and once you get a loan you are not able to move the move loan. You can't payoff the mortgage even at maturity date. When I moved my mortgage at the time of maturity to another bank, they still charge me interest. When I asked they have so many hidden rules. Please stay away from this corrupt bank.

    Interface (online, telephone, in-person, etc.): Rated 1 / 5 stars

    How long have you banked with them?: Was considering moving my savings and opening a GIC from Simplii to WealthOne but the customer service was horrid and didn’t inspire any confidence

    Why do you bank with them?: I don’t think I will

    What do you like about this bank / credit union?: I was attracted to the no fee, high interest savings and GIC offerings

    What could be improved about this bank / credit union?: Much better customer service

    General comments: If I would have received a more sophisticated and friendly response from the agent to my questions I would have started accounts.

  3. Customer service: Rated 3 / 5 stars

    Account features: Rated 2 / 5 stars

    Interest rates (consistency and amount): Rated 5 / 5 stars

    Fees: Rated 5 / 5 stars

    Interface (online, telephone, in-person, etc.): Rated 2 / 5 stars

    How long have you banked with them?: Still waiting for the accounts to be opened after 2 weeks

    Why do you bank with them?: Mainly for a reasonable GIC interest rate.

    What do you like about this bank / credit union?: So far nothing impressive to report on.

    What could be improved about this bank / credit union?: Online account opening process very painful, unless you can walk in to their office I guess. after 2 weeks and providing all the material, they still haven't setup the account in a useable state. Most banks do it in 2 days at most.

    General comments: One of the phone number they provide is an answering machine. The other is not always answered / or answered by the same person and always promise to get the "assigned/person" to take followup action, but so far it hasn't happened. External account linking for funds transfer is only done manually by them making it very lengthy and painful and only for checking accounts. If you have other options/banks, this bank is probably not the best choice and best avoided unless you have a lot of patience and time at hand !

  4. Customer service: Rated 3 / 5 stars

    Account features: Rated 2 / 5 stars

    Interest rates (consistency and amount):

    Fees: Rated 4 / 5 stars

    Interface (online, telephone, in-person, etc.): Rated 2 / 5 stars

    How long have you banked with them?: One year

    Why do you bank with them?: High interest rates; office nearby with parking (Richmond BC); promise of free mailed monthly statements (which was broken); running out of CDIC room after leaving ING

    What do you like about this bank / credit union?: Having local office and parking

    What could be improved about this bank / credit union?: Better staff training; more helpful attitude and less "Take it or leave it"; automated telephone banking; keep web site and printed brochures/info sheets updated and consistent.

    General comments: Very amateurish operation. One easily can imagine showing up at their tiny rented office rooms and finding them empty. Their web site and flyer has out-of-date branch locations more than a year after the most recent moved. Local rep was very helpful when I signed up, national customer service line rude and dismissive.

    What do you like about this bank / credit union?: Easy to setup an account.
