Expiry: Jun 30, 2016
You can earn up to $100 when you open a High Interest Savings Account (no monthly fee and unlimited transactions) from Medridian Credit Union online by Jun 30, 2016. I should admit that this $100 is easy to earn (no requirements on direct deposity, bill payments etc).
Eligible recipients must fully complete the High Interest Savings Account online application and a qualifying deposit in an amount not less than the amount to be matched by Meridian (up to $100.00) must be made by June 30th, 2016. The qualifying deposit can be made by depositing a personal cheque using our mobile app or by uploading a copy of a recent bank statement from another Canadian financial institution along with a request for an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) as part of the online application process.
The interest of this HISA is 1.5%. It is not very good, but still higher than those big banks. Your balance are insured by Deposit Insurance Corporation of Ontario (up to $100,000).
Note: This offer is available to new Members of Meridian Credit Union Only. “New Members” excludes persons who were previously Members of Meridian at any time between May 31st, 2015 and May 31st, 2016. The offer is awarded on the condition that the recipient agrees to keep the awarded matching funds on deposit with Meridian for at least 60 days, and therefore the funds are not available for withdrawal or other use by the recipient until this period expires.
