Such a scam. Worst bank ever, I really gotta source a new one but I’m sure I’ll get raped moving to the new one and let’s be honest, will the new one be any better? Doubtful. Canadians get ripped off so bad. And yeah the service is f- ultra fail.
Maybe you low end, low worth losers can only transfer that much, but its to protect you in the end.

Wtf. Is this just an Android thing then, or just me? It suddenly disappeared a week or more ago for me. I can no longer filter the 1/2/3/4/5 star reviews either.

Tried other browsers just now and doesn't work on my wife's phone either.

I'm on Android as well and can sort based on most relevant, most recent, highest and lowest. Works on both the browser and through Google Maps.

Thanks for the Google Maps tip. I can sort the reviews there.

It's so weird. This is what I see now. No where to sort the reviews anymore.

RBC is terrible. Not just e transfer. I closed my account but kept my visa, so I just e transfer to pay but apparently you can’t just deposit to the visa has to go in an account first. So I made 2 payments same day, they call me about a late payment. Huh? Apparently you have to do the entire payment whole not in 2 parts. I’m sorry I paid the wrong amount and immediately paid the remainder. wtf.

Trash ass bank.

The last cheque I used was year and years ago to set up payroll auto deposit. What do people use now for that?

But if you #### up entering that number… it’s can be an embarrassing #### show. I know, because I’m an idiot.

Almost all online banking apps have a section where you can download a PDF of a voided cheque with your account info on it.

Could be for small business. Lots of wholesalers prefer cheques because the fees on credit cards are way higher than the fee for depositing a cheque.

I'll take a cheque over most major credit cards.

Instant deposit and no fees. With POS machine I have to give like 3 intermediaries a cut, its ridiculous.

I suppose, but my kids are applying for summer jobs at the Stampede and they’re asking for void cheques.

I think void cheque is just how they word it, if they want a hard copy I just print the numbers they need and that always works fine
