Tandia Wonderfulrate - new money in new HISA account earn 3% until March 31st 2022 | Page 7 | General comparisons | Discussion forum

So far, no extension or attractive new promo for all deposits after this Thursday, when the 3% promo ends in the Wonderful savings account. Tandia should anticipate withdrawal of a very substantial amount of money from all members who deposited last December, if they don't immediately offer an enticing special rate on short-term GICs or savings accounts.

Tandia's rates would appear to be among the lowest of the FIs. The eVest online HISA rate seems to be 0.40%. That will be quite the drop from getting 3% to 0.40% on April 1. However, it is only March 28th so they have time to offer something attractive before the funds flow out. I think there could be service charges to transfer the funds out.
I see a 13 month special GIC @ 1.70% and a 30 month special GIC @ 2.50%. I did not see a 15 month special.

Tandia knows very well that they will lose deposits on April 1.
These kinds of promos are designed to net some new customers/members, some of whom will stay for future deals or get picked up by their Wealth Management people.
I've received 3 phone calls from them in the last couple of weeks. The fellow I spoke to was very pleasant and appreciated my position. He didn't try to push me into anything unsuitable. I will keep my membership open.

I've had a lot of problems logging in to Tandia since this promo started.
Their message is usually "The system is experiencing problems. Please try again later.
For technical assistance, call our Member Solutions Centre at 1.800.598.2891 or Contact Us."
I get this message more than half the time. Eventually it resolves.

Is anyone else having this problem? If so, have you found a resolution or does one just have to wait? I imagine it will be hopeless tomorrow to get anywhere.

I also have regular problems logging in on my laptop, getting that same message.
I was tending to come back some time later, but recently, I have had success by just clcking on the login again, immediately.
It has been this way for me since I started with them
However, I have found that I can basically always connect via my ipad-- in this case, the tablet app seems a lot more stable
Go figure

found their system a little weird cuz its supposed to have 2-factor verification (when I set up the account) but somehow it never kicks in (not cuz I selected trust this computer option).
However I dont have any issues logging in either. And the advisor that helped me opened my account is extremely helpful and always reply to my email request same/next day.
For now, without any competitive rates from Tandia, already gave the instructions to move the money out next Monday. 3% was good while it lasts. And I will condemn Tangerine again for not selecting me for their 2.8%...
