Less Waiting And Higher Limits For CIBC Agility Savings Account - 12/20/2018

I got the following email: "Change in Terms Notice for Your Agility Savings Account "As of January 24, 2019, the following changes will take effect regarding your ability to make external transfers within CIBC NetBanking: "1. We have reduced the waiting period to 30 days to allow you to use CIBC NetBanking to transfer funds from your CIBC Bank USA account to your account at another financial institution. "2. We have changed the limits for using external transfers in CIBC NetBanking to transfer funds to an account you own at another financial institution. The new limits are $125,000.00 per day and $250,000.00 per month." IIRC, they had a 90 day hold on money once deposited, though I was initially told if I called them they could set external accounts up over the phone before the 90 day period was up and money could sent to the original bank via ACH anyways.

Excellent Promotional Deal

Posted by: rhj | Jul 10, 2016

They have been running a 1.31% APY first 6 month deal for a year or more now. If you call at the end of it, in one step they'll renew the deal if you close and reopen. I've had no problems wiring into the account and EFT'ing out of the account. I'm not sure what the negative reviews are about!

Too Many Restrictions

Posted by: RZ | Jan 12, 2018

I have been with this bank for a couple of years as their rates for savings accounts have been competitive up until recently. What is annoying however is that the promo rates are guaranteed for only 6 months and then revert to a much lower one. In order to maintain the better rate a new account must be opened which is an unnecessary hassle requiring that new external linkages must then be established. Out going ACH transfers are also limited adding further hoops for gaining access to your funds. Now that even the promo rate is not near the leaders I am done with dealing with this banks idiosyncrasies and plan to move on.

Be Sure To Read All Of The Disclosures!

Posted by: CDInvestor1 | Jul 20, 2016

They currently have a very good promotional rate of 1.30% fixed for the first six months the savings account is open. HOWEVER, when I read the disclosure statement, three things kept me from opening the account:
1. No trusts, and no POD accounts--therefore, no beneficiaries!!!! A deal breaker for me, no matter how good the interest rate is.
2. There is a maximum initial deposit of $100,000.00.
3. You can ACH by "pulling" from another external account with no fees or maximums, but you have a 90 day waiting period after opening the account before you can do so. Not good if an emergency arises during that time and you would need the funds.

At least their disclosure statements are posted on their website. Many banks do not do this (but they all should).

Stay Away Until They Get Their Act Together

Posted by: Jarlath | Sep 14, 2018

I just opened, and closed, a CIBC agility account. I didn't know that they do not allow you to pull money in from an external bank account. You have to wire it over or send them a check. I called customer service question this and they said as they are new to the online banking business, they still are working out the kinks. So, until they do, do not open an online account with them.
