I think it is because you can not use Interac on Tangerine saving acct. only chequing acct.

How long does it take for latest PAYMENOW promo's payment to go through? (the one that should go from linked bank account(s)

It's been a couple of days now ... and neither mine nor my mother's account was debited $1 for latest bill payment (11 - 10 paytm bucks = $1).

My transaction had a disclaimer "First bank payment can take up to 5 business days". Assume the maximum timeline and you may get pleasantly surprised.

That's what I'd tell you if I was a hacker stealing your bank login info while I confirmed it really works with your bank ;)

LOL. Are people changing to temporary passwords for this and changing again later? I hope so.

Actually, someone is attempting to "login" to my account.
After completing a payment from my bank account, I went ahead and deleted the account (while the payment is still pending) and I received a notification that someone attempted to login to my account unsuccessfuly!
Me thinks Paytm is trying to complete the transaction...

LOL.

Does their service "link"'to your account or save your login and then login and pay your bill for you.

I would rather just open new accounts and avail of the ADELAIDE code and leave my Rogers MC in there. I only bank with RBC and I don't want to risk anything for $15.

Besides, they want more account openings as that's part of their metrics so let's help them achieve that 8 million user goal.

Looks like they save credentials and login to withdraw the funds.
According to the security notification, the unsuccessful attempt was a result of failing to provide an answer to one of my security questions.

Open new accounts? How many do you have in mind? LOL. Each account needs a different email address and phone # that can receive text. Maybe even a different credit card in the account holder name as well?

actually, both chq and sav are linkable ...

so i made payments with the promo from linked account ...
but it says they cannot charge my account for a few days ...
does this mean that the payment to the billers would also be delayed?

How many accounts have you created so far? They would probably ban the accounts if I create too many.
