I was surprised to know that Simplii Financial are now charging a $3 Convenience Fee if you use the ATMs at Superstore / Loblaws.
Maybe I missed the communication from CIBC, to state that these new charges took effect three days ago.
The Simplii Financial Agent warned me about it when I was going to do a transaction at the ATM at Loblaws.
Did any of you who have a Simplii Financial account, receive any such communication about these new charges if you now use the ATMs at Loblaw's or Superstore?
Soon it may not be worthwhile having a Simplii Financial Account if they introduce similar charges to normal bank accounts.

PC seemed to be a solid bank in terms of serving customers but simplii has gone back to just being like it's CIBC owners.

Other than losing atms at loblaws it's the same. I haven't seen a single difference in service.

Simplii customers can still use any CIBC ATM free of charge. However, Loblaws has ended its relationship with CIBC so the ATMs that are currently at Loblaws stores don't belong to CIBC anymore. As such any Simplii customer who uses them will incur the same service charge as using any other out of network ATM.

The ATM machine at this particular location was a brand new one and that is why they are now charging convenience fees for withdrawals. The old PC Financial one has been removed.
Apparently, it will eventually apply to all the locations. It will still be free banking at all the CIBC locations.

I had Simplii up until 2 months ago. I lost by bank card and they suggested I do money transfers to friends online for access to cash until my new card showed up a week later. Fucking greasy.

They replaced the CIBC machine in my Your Independent a month ago . . . replaced it with a third-party ATM but left all the PC Financial signage around it so it looked the same as before. What most people don't know is these "third-party" ATMs (the ones you find in convenience stores, bars, etc., are all owned/operated by subsidiaries of the major banks. Likely the one that CIBC replaced in my grocery store is still, indirectly owned by CIB . . . only now they charge a fees to get your cash. Thieves!

I went online one day to log into PC only to be redirected to Simplii. I also apparently had a card mailed to my old address. That was a quick changeover! Bottom line, PC is not Simplii.
