    Update Jun 4th, 2024 - EQ Bank has just launched a Notice Savings account that allows you to earn 4.5% or 5% interest rate with 10-30 days cash withdrawal notice. This is a better account for parking your cash than the current HISA. Sign up here - bit.ly/4aMwBR9

    Thank you so much for this information, just for clarification purposes . The interest rate is it only in a yearly basis?

    • @WhizQueen
      @WhizQueen  4 месяца назад +1

      Yes it is. Most interest rates are per annum

    I was offered to open a high interest savings account my local rbc branch @ 5%...
    I said "HIGH INTEREST"??? So whats my credit card then @ 21%??
    I was told " THAT is what we offer"
    I asked "is anyone that stupid"

    • @WhizQueen
      @WhizQueen  4 месяца назад +1

      I know right! Which is why I always advise to prioritize paying off CC debt first before thinking of saving or investing. 5% is still better than nothing offered by most traditional savings accounts.

    EQ ? I tried to open an account and I never succeeded, I eventually settled for Wealthsimple

    • @WhizQueen

      That’s surprising. How did you try? Directly on their website or link in description? Wealthsimple is a good choice too, I love both!

    Anyone wanting to make money shouldn't be using any banks they do not offer what the web base can offer like WS and EQ . GIC's even at EQ for 1yr is now 5.25%

    • @WhizQueen
      @WhizQueen  3 месяца назад +1

      I agree! I don’t recommend locked in GICs though. If it’s not cashable, 5.25% is not enough to get locked in for a whole year. EQ just introduced the Notice Savings account offering 5% for 30 days notice. I think this is a better choice

    • @cryptojohnny7781
      @cryptojohnny7781 3 месяца назад

      Far enough I had thousands I was “parking” for a year anyways and got locked in at 5.35% on EQ for 1 year. On $50K that’s a good win for 1 year 👍

      Yes, the account doubles as a chequing and savings account.

    Am confused, can I use this high interest savings account for my personal day to day transaction or do I need to open another account for that
    Do you know of any of these banks that allow children under 13 open account, I have checked neo and EQ
    Lastly, I cant see your referral code

    • @WhizQueen
      @WhizQueen  4 месяца назад +1

      Hi, you can use the same account for high interest saving for day to day banking. I believe children account has to be opened with a parent or guardian. It's a referral link.
