Got the offer via email today, but couldn't log in to my account. So, printed out the RFD imgur page. Will give it a try at the local A&W later this afternoon.

That location is rarely busy. Actually, shouldn't say that since I go by there once every two days. Today I ask cute girl how many people came by with coupon. She said I was the first. There were grand total of five people in there and zero line up, with maybe three people sitting outside eating and shooting the breeze.

Like a friend told me, it's a white man's sriracha taste. I must be more white than I thought. Hee hee, hue hue, pew pew.

Seriously, I like the taste. Then again, free makes anything better.

Credits to a 85+ pages thread on RFD. I'll try to summarize it best to my ability.

Who: ZenBanx
-> An "online" bank without much physical branches similar to Tangerine. Headoffice in Toronto and USA.
-> Started by the same guy that invented ING Direct / (Tangerine today)
-> A subsidiary of DUCA, a credit union with 15 branches in Ontario
-> As such, your deposits up to $100,000 are all insured and protected by DICO (The Deposit Insurance Corporation of Ontario)
-> All Canadians are eligible for an account. You do not need to reside / physically be in Ontario.
-> A SIN card is needed for registration.
-> No monthly fees.
-> Sign up bonus of $10 for referrer and referee. Please don't post any referral links on here as per RS rules.
-> Have an account set up at least 3 business days prior to below promo.
-> An ATM card is available if you wish, approximately 1 week in mail (or longer).

The "Deal"
-> This is the second time around, they had a similar promo for Canada Day.
-> On August 3rd (aka BC Day / Civic Holiday, etc)
-> You can exchange up to $250 CAD for $250 USD on par
-> Today's exchange rate stands at 1.30455
-> Aka, when you transfer it back to CAD, you're at a gain/profit of ~$75 give or take

Steps
1) Sign up for an account on Mobile Account for those who live in Multiple Currencies - ZenBanx in Canada at least 3 business days prior.
2) Link a bank account and/or cheque
3) In ~1-2 busineses days, you will receive 2 "micro deposits" (similar to PayPal, Tangerine, etc)
into your linked bank account. You will need to log back on ZenBanx's website and verify these two amounts.
4) On August 3rd, exchange (maximum) of $250 CAD for $250 USD on par
5) Keep it in your account as USD and hope it will go up
or
6) Exchange it back into your account for CAD.
6a) Withdraw it at an ATM for free.
6b) Transfer it back to your linked account for free.
6c) Use it at Point of Sale purchase for fee-free.
or
7) Keep it as USD. And when you're in the States:
7a) Use it at retail stores as a debit card for free at these specific retail locations:
NYCE Payments Network, LLC
7b) Withdraw it in USD at ATM's for a $3 fee.

Details on it's fee's: http://zenbanx.ca/dms/FeeSchedule.pdf


Hope I covered most of the FAQ's. Let me know if you have any other questions. You can visit their website for more info. There are hints that it may appear again for a Labour Day promotion. But nevertheless, an easy ~$75-85 for this time alone.

It was really simple signing up and linking the accounts. It took me maybe 10-15minutes in total.

$250 CAD for $250 USD is a GREAT deal! I just hope their servers can handle the load.

If anyone needs a referral PM me and we BOTH get $10!

Well duh, they're IMF.

Although if you're using a VPN to get around the region blocking you're effectively pirating it anyways, no different from torrenting.

Free food! Big Smoke Burger on West Broadway and Cambie is offering a free burger, free fries, and a drink this Wednesday, July 29th from 11am to 3pm.

Grand Opening promotion.

https://www.straight.com/blogra/4968...nesday-july-29

A gourmet burger chain has figured out how to get the attention of Vancouverites.

It will celebrate the opening of its new location at 500 West Broadway by offering a free burger, fries, and a drink on Wednesday (July 29) from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

All you have to do is get off the Canada Line at the Broadway-City Hall Station and cross over to the northwestern side of the intersection.

The company is asking patrons who eat for free to donate to Big Brothers of Greater Vancouver. It promises to match any contributions dollar for dollar.

For those that haven't signed up for the above ZenBanx $250 for $250 offer should do it today ASAP as it takes a few days to get your account fully set up.

I believe it will get converted to CAN. I heard the best way to get the USD is to use the debit card in the states and withdraw from an in system ATM so there are no fees or conversion.

Either convert back to CAD and then transfer back to your bank.
or take your atm card and use it in the states as debit card for free at specific retailers or at ATM withdrawal for $3.
