Hmmm ... It's a long weekend. Maybe someone just hasn't got around to updating their GIC rate page yet.

Check again tomorrow https://www.tangerine.ca/en/rates/gic-rates

But then again ... it might be a system glitch. sf-smile

It is a glitch. Tangerine Historical Rates says it is effective as of August 5.

I could not resist the opportunity to experiment and since Tang's GIC purchase minimum is minuscule, I opened a $100 GIC for 18 months. My confirmed rate is 5.6%, and the effective date is tomorrow.

So I think it's safe to predict that Tang's 18 month GIC rate will be updated to 5.6% tomorrow.

The link in post #3 shows a one-year GIC rate of 5.25%, the GIC page here shows 5.5%.

Those rates are for a 12 month GIC. The 5.6% rate is for an 18 month GIC, which doesn't appear in the GIC rate table on this site.

I know, it's off topic but I'm just pointing out the discrepancy here in the Tangerine one-year rate disclosure, didn't want to start a whole thread for that (not that I know how to).

Those special terms like 18 months are usually noted at the bottom of the GIC chart page.

vow thanks for the heads up. Tangerine now the most aggresive issuer in the 1 and 1.5y space. Their longer rates still subpar big time tho.

wife just receive the 5.85% HISA rate too.
