not in my case, I have 0 or a few cents there, however I ever asked an offer before not used though cause it was only 2.3 which ended on April 30. Even now, still didn't accept 2.5 yet.D0ntgiveajack wrote: ↑ once again i have no offers.
i think it’s because my balance is almost 0 on my accounts because i moved everything to EQ bank a while ago.
Wait 1 or 2 months an offer will come your way.D0ntgiveajack wrote: ↑ once again i have no offers.

Exactly what happened to my mother. I accepted the offer anyway even though she won't benefit from it since it's only on new money. My reasoning is that, if I don't accept it, there might not be a new offer coming for a long time. So thinking is that when this one expires, a new offer is likely to follow. Will move what money I can out in the meantime.silverele wrote: ↑ This is exactly what happened with my mother's account! Last offer was supposed to end April 30 and the next offer began May 1 with a balance snapshot taken from April 30.
Unfortunately, she did not move her money out before April 30, next time we will know better. We aren't going to activate the offer and hope she gets another one soon.
hmm, I ever called Tangerine to got an offer last Nov, but I only got 2.3% at that moment, so I didn't deposit any money there. The previous offer ended on Apr 30, 2020, and after that when I logged in, there had 2.5% showed in banner. Have said that, even you didn't have any money in Tangerine, you may still got offer regardless.
How did you get in touch with Outbound team - do you have a direct number? My 2.5% rate expired so I asked a Customer Service agent to speak to them on Friday April 24th. She said she would have to send the team a "message" to call me back because they were so "overloaded". I still have not received a callback and I've been a Tangerine client for years with substantial holdings.Darkman wrote: ↑ Touched base with Tangerine Outbound Task Force yesterday ....
The best they can offer nowadays is 2.5% ... I already had that until September 28, 2020 from them.
So the rep told me, if I want they can extend that / start it over ... for 180 days again.
So I said to myself "sure, why not" ... So the change (in promo duration) would be from September 28, 2020 to Nov. 7 or 8, 2020 ... or something like that.
The change should take place some time tomorrow.
You have to ask a front line agent to have the outbound people call you back. That usually happens within a couple of days. It seems that TING dropped the ball in your case. All you can do is call front line back, tell them that you're still waiting for a call back and ask them to message the outbound people again.JeffThornhill wrote: ↑ How did you get in touch with Outbound team - do you have a direct number?

Some Hot Deals are YMMV, lots are not. All Hot Deals expire eventually...you must be one of the lucky one that does not get these offers. The offers for Tangerine are posted here so people can check if they see it on their App. My last thread had hundreds of reply's with people successfully activating the offer. So i would say it is Hot Deals worthyScote64 wrote: ↑ Not sure Tangerine interest rates really merit a Hot Deals thread - Tangerine has an ongoing process of making random offers of promotional rates for the last several years, well documented in the Tangerine Interest Rate Lottery thread in the Personal Finance forum.
It's totally YMMV. The interest rate offer you get is apparently random, not linked to any particular factors that anyone has been able to determine in years of monitoring by RFDers. It doesn't seem to matter how much money you have in Tangerine, or how much business you do with them. A lot of the time they offer nothing more than their standard ridiculously low rate. You can re-check at 3 month intervals - past history is no indication of what offer you may or may not get in future. From the thread you can see the range of offers people have gotten most recently.
If you do get a promo interest rate offer, the rate is not fixed for the term they offered - it gets reduced when interest rates go down, as they have recently.
Another work around is to have 2 savings accounts, one joint. I have a joint savings account with my wife and a separate one and they don't count towards each other. So I can transfer money from my joint account to my personal one and it's still a "new deposit" because the joint one doesn't have this promotion activated.timmyboy4 wrote: ↑ Got it - thanks. They're getting a little wiser; there used to be a 4-6 day gap in between when your last offer would end (say Apr 30) and when your new offer would start (say May 5, with balance calculated as of May 4). This offer uses your Apr 30 balance, I assume the high of that day, so that if you had transferred out on Apr 30 your high balance from that day would be captured so the incremental "new deposit only" portion can't just be the recycling of what you've removed.
Took them a while. We've been doing this for years. So now we just need to yank it out a bit early - set an alert for Sep 28
