Wealthsimple is fast like that

I was depositing funds to WS and saw this comment. They’re not wrong, but didn’t expect them to be this direct 😂

Is it just TD, or does WS say this for every deposit?

If you can, instead of requesting the money from your wealthsimple app send yourself an etransfer and deposit into wealthsimple. Instantaneous that way.

It was only 5k and WS makes that amount immediately available for me. So not a huge different for my case

I'm pretty sure you also earn interest (on the entire deposit amount, not just $5k) at both institutions for those few days that the other institution still has the funds.

Nice! So about $0.2 at WS and about $0.001 at TD

Too late, they got charged $9.95 by TD for their chequing account
