Arrow Online (Internet) Banks

G'day

I took the dive and set up a Tangerine savings account & credit card earlier this year (https://www.tangerine.ca/en/index.html), and things have been gong just fine.

Now, In search of even higher interest rates and lower fees, I'm looking at some of the other Online Banks (EQ Bank / PC Financial / Zag / Simplii / etc.) as well.

Has anyone here dealt with those other Online Banks ^, and what do you think of them?

I have an account with EQ getting 2.9%. All’s well and just got an email this week saying they are upping the limit to 200G from 100G 👍

PC Financial is no longer. It's now Simplii Financial (still run by CIBC)

Tangerine is owned by Scotiabank. I exited Scotia many years ago and mortgaged through ING. Scotiabank bought them and named it Tangerine. Dope!!

EQ Bank is looking pretty good. In addition to Tangerine, I'm seriously thinking of going with them as well.

EQ has the best interest rates on savings accounts & GIC's in Canada right now ... https://www.eqbank.ca/
