Canada here. These US services seem amazing. We're limited to "Interac e-Transfers" with archaic send times, terribly low maximums, and even per-transaction fees.
- digianarchist 5y agoTo be fair most banks waive the fee. I agree with the minimums and send time. It’s ridiculous that a transfer I make every week to my wife takes 30 mins to complete. Slower than Bitcoin.
- rnotaro 5y agoI don't have the same experience. All my canadian banks are covering my fees and 80% of the time the transfer is instantaneous. Most of the time under 5 minutes. Interac E-Transfer minimums are 0.01$. Money is going straight into my checking accounts.
- digianarchist 5y agoTangerine in particular appear to be the problem with slow transfers.
- rchaud 5y agoI pay a cleaning service regularly w/ E-transfer and the money is deposited within minutes. My bank imposes a $3,000 daily limit, which is more than US services seem to allow in a month.
- klyrs 5y agoMy bank has a daily limit, but I've always found it easy to just call and ask them to raise the limit for the day. A minor inconvenience, but I'd not like to accidentally spend more.
