They charged $50 to do so and pulled the money out of the account prior to transfer. Know if Etrade does this? Thanks Bill I had a bad experience with Ameritrade when I closed an account.

I think this will probably move to all traders in the longer-term.

Still that is a $50-$100 saving even without the $5 per $1000 offer. For RRSP accounts, the integration with my bank account is not a big deal. I can wait 3-4 days for the money to be transferred. As you say, it is a tempting offer... 0xcc: I don’t trade very much either, maybe 5-10 trades in two RRSP accounts every year (usually adding to my positions).

The one thing I like is the close integration between my TD Canada Trust accounts and my TD Waterhouse accounts but I don't really make too many movements into my RRSP. The only issue is that I don't trade a whole lot either. :) The $5 per $1000 does make it more tempting though... Wow, that is pretty tempting.
