If you log into the website, tap your name on the top right and go to Profile & Settings. There's gonna be a "Refer a Friend" section on the page with your orange key...in orange.

I...have no idea how you got to that screen. Here's what mine looks like when I go to Profile & Settings. See the attached image.

Thanks for your help.
I look at my screen and I don’t have the “Refer the Friend” part on the right side!
Where the heck is it?!
See image.

Hm...interesting. Do you actually have a bank account open with them or do you only have the credit card or something like that?

Maybe you have an ad blocker that's preventing it from showing up? I don't know...

Chequing account, savings account, TFSA, credit card. I even got my mortgage through them when they were ING Direct!
I'm asking for help on RFD because it's almost impossible to get through to someone on the phone at Tangerine!

lol... damn. Yeah, I'm not sure then. Have you tried checking if there's an ad blocker issue?

Maybe try taking a look in the app? In the Android app, you can go to the More option along the bottom, go to Profile & Settings -> General -> Refer a Friend. I can see my orange key on this screen as well. Not sure if maybe that will work for you...

Canada, Eh!!
Try chatting with them.
2022/3: BOC raised 9 times and MCAP raised its prime next day.
2017,2018: BOC raised rates 5 times and MCAP raised its prime next day each time.
2020: BOC dropped rates 3 times and MCAP waited to drop its prime to include all 3 drops.

It doesn’t look like they have a “live” chat during business hours?!
I couldn’t find it.
The chat is with just a bot.

Hmmm... last chatted with them was last year so perhaps changed. Try putting live agent or something like that once logged in during business hours.

That's not an orange key. That's a white key on an orange background. I want to flick the graphic designer on the nose.

Try at a different time of day.
I have been on hold many times. If the hold time is longer then you want to want (they tell you the estimated wait time) then try again later. Sometimes it takes a few mins on hold before it tells you the estimated time remaining.
Also they are open 2/7, the wait times at this link are not always accurate but give you a starting point.
Right now the hold time is 10 minutes

In fact in Rand McNally they wear hats on their feet and hamburgers eat people

Do you have any kind of anti-scripting browser add-on, or advanced anti-virus that blocks javascripts?
It might be a side-effect of something like that.

Hi all, thanks for all your help.
No I don’t have any blocker. I used my laptop, iPad and phone going directly to their site and/or using the Tangerine app and no luck.
So I finally got through on the phone, they couldn’t find my Orange # as well and didn’t know why, so they just created a new one for me.
Now when I login, my new Orange # is showing like the screenshot @Asharp posted.
Frustrating to talk to someone but glad it’s all fixed
