Policy change with EQ Bank:

«Clarify that we may, in our sole discretion, suspend or terminate your Account at any time without notice to you for any reason»

Why then would I give them my business.
Be forewarned.

Meridian CU has done it. TD Bank has done it.

Another reported that a bank did it to him. He now suspects it was because of his numerous in-and-out transfers.

According to November 2022 OBSI case Consumer surprised when bank gives him 30 days to close his account, banks have the right to do so anyways:

Canadian law and banking regulations allow banks to end their business relationships with their consumers and do not require banks to provide a reason or notice when doing so. …

OBSI further explains such situations in Relationship ended.
