在Tangerine开户的注意事项


聚沙前面介绍过Tangerine银行账户和信用卡,目前Tangerine的相关offers可见:
http://www.canadianrewards.net/2017/02/current-tangerine-bank-promotions.html 最近,一直有朋友问新移民和国际学生能否申请Tangerine的银行账户和信用卡呢?

先说信用卡吧,新移民积累了一些信用记录后可以申请,而且额度会较高。不过国际学生申请就要注意了,Tangerine在信用卡方面对学生不太友好,你就算申请下来也需要提供加拿大的证件才能激活(中国护照不行),所以你最好有加拿大的驾照或其他官方发的证件,再考虑申请Tangerine Money-Back MasterCard(申请时别提供SIN)。

至于Tangerine的银行账户,新移民和国际学生都是可以申请的。不过,必须指出的是,自从Scotiabank接手橘子银行后,对新客户的身份/收入认证愈发严格,且逐渐对学生也不太友好了。最近“Everett”大神提供信息,说国际学生在Tangerine开账户,给了SIN还不够,还得fax或者mail ID copy/SIN letter/Study permit给他们。最新的消息,Tangerine已经发展到要开户人补T4才给开户的$50 bonus。聚沙个人觉得,橘子银行是稍微有些过分了,和原先的ING Direct的风格大不同啊。所以,请大家在开户之前要好好衡量,自行评估风险。

嗯,除了开户的$50 bonus以外,那个$75的payroll direct deposit奖励也不是那么好拿的。有些朋友和Tangerine客服联系,客服说你需要连续direct deposity 六个月才能拿到这个$75的bonus【官方网站上可没有提这个啊】。还是老话,大家自行评估啦。

顺便提一下:Tangerine的Debit卡面换新的了(见上图,谢谢“code”提供)。你有可能在接下来的2周年收到新的Tangerine Debit卡(卡号和PIN不变)。Tangerine介绍新的Debit卡会自带Interac Flash功能,当你支付低于$100时,可以不用插卡/输密码。呵呵,你会用这个Interac Flash吗?反正我是不会用的。注意:如果你的Debit卡被盗刷(和信用卡被盗刷不一样),Tangerine是没有责任的。

附件(Tangerine Debit 卡的部分 Cardholder Agreement)
