On June 15th I logged into my Meridian account & using their so called money mover option pulled money out from a linked account at another FI. The amount showed in my Meridian account on June 19th but the amount showed as not available. I need to have access to that money to pay a scheduled Visa payment that is set to come out of the account on June 24th. I called Meridian just to make sure the hold would be gone by June 24th & to my shock was told the hold would be on until July 2nd. So from start to finish it will be more than one month.

I signed up at a Meridian branch in Ottawa many years ago for a great GIC promo. I dealt with a young kid to sign up. I remember that he knew less than me regarding finances. I actually showed him this website in his office & he was simply amazed at the available information. Once the promo GIC expired I transferred out the entire amount & closed my account. Haven't been back since.

Just wait until you want to get money out of meridian. Just wait...
You really need to have cheques with Meridian to move your money out - their "Money Mover" system is abysmal - perhaps the slowest around. I found Meridian to be behind the times - not progressive - wonder if they will start to close any of their many branches.

In this case I was trying to move money in from a savings account at the other FI.
