That's not a legitimate reason to deny you an account. That employee is an idiot. Complain to the manager, or preferably find another branch.

Saw what a poster did here and decided to send a online message to Scotia. I was told that:

"If you opened your account using the open your account option on that exact
link then you will receive the promotional credit by October 31st.

However, if you opened the account from any other page on Scotia OnLine you
will not receive the credit.

I trust this information is helpful and hope you find our online
customer services satisfactory."

Still on the fence whether I should take my chances or not. That message through online banking isn't a DM or email though, and I guess if I don't get it then they could say I didn't do it through that link.

Im trying to figure out the easiest way to set this up..

It says you need 2 pre-authorized transactions.
Is a reoccuring bill payment the same thing, or no?

Thanks. Can I do 2 x $25 from the same account? Or does it have to be different Tangerine accounts?

So, I set up an ASP through Tangerine:

In the transaction description on Scotia's site, it says: Inter-FI Funds Transfer Tangerine
In the transaction description on Tangerine's site, it says: EFT Deposit from THE BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA

Does the transaction satisfy the PAT requirement or does it have to have "pre-authorized" in the description? I have set up PAD from CC as my second PAT.

Scotia Bank Promo are mostly targeted/YMMV, this thread was not supposed to be 28 pages if not for the sturborn of some RFD's think linking Op"s link will qualify them. Having your e-mail with Scotiabank is the best option to get an offer. I started with Scene Card and received promotions on 10K bonus Scene Pts and 20K bonus scene pts if I open an chequing account with them and do that this thread is explain. I also receives this promo but I just close my account last year therefore I am not qualify for this promo.

The 5000 pt bonus is the ‘standard’ offer, so don’t get your hopes up yet...
