I just received a targeted offer from BMO for 5.75%until Aug 31 2024.
I thought this was something new until I found this thread and also references to it on the RFD forum. Looks like it's a special account is required, "Savings Amplifier".
Anyone have experience with this sceme? I wonder if it's worth moving some money there for 3 months? Regular interest on the account is stated at 1.9%.

It would be a dumb thing for BMO to pay such claims when the ombudsman and police have found no fault with the bank.
I could say the same for a friend's insurance company that refused to pay extra when the rebuilding costs after a fire turned out to be $200,000 more than the insurance company was offering to payout.
He saw a lawyer and was told insurance company is not doing anythng wrong. Replacement value insurance is not a blank cheque from the insurance company. If one buys $1 million of fire insurance with the replacement value option, the $1 million limit still applies. Doesn't matter if it would now cost $1.2 million to rebuild the house or buy replacemnt. No legal grounds to get another $200,000 from the insurance company.
