If I opened a joint account with my partner then do we each receive the cash reward?
Only the primary account holder who is not an existing owner of a personal banking account is eligible for the offer.
Can I still qualify if I don’t use an automated recurring payroll direct deposit?
Yes, as long as you set up and complete two (2) Pre-Authorized Payments and have paid 2 bills and both payments are debited from the new eligible account by May 31, 2022.
What types of payments count as Pre-Authorized Payments and meet with the offer requirements?
If you choose to qualify for this offer with the two (2) pre-authorized payments (PAPs) option the payments must be withdrawn from your new eligible account by May 31, 2022. You can set up the two (2) pre-authorized payments from two (2) different companies or if you set them up with the same company, the 2 pre-authorized payments must be for different account numbers. Pre-authorized payments include, but are not limited to, utility bill payments (hydro, water, cable, phone, internet), pre-authorized contributions to your investments and gym membership payments.
When will I receive the cash reward if I qualify?
After completing the criteria by May 31, 2022, the cash reward will be deposited into your new eligible account within 2 to 10 weeks of you completing the Qualifying Criteria. This means either your direct deposit payroll has been deposited to your new account OR the two bill payments or 2 pre-authorized payments you set up have both been debited from your new account.
I did not receive the cash reward. What could be the reason?
You may have not received the cash reward due to one of the following:
- If the qualifying criteria was not completed by May 31, 2022.
- Your new eligible account was downgraded or closed prior to August 8, 2022.
- The recurring payroll, 2 bill payments or two (2) pre-authorized payments were not recognized by RBC Royal Bank
I believe I qualified but I did not receive the cash reward. What do I do?
Please contact your branch or our Advice Centre on 1-800-769-2511 no later than June 30, 2022, if you have not received your Cash Reward. Any notice received after this date, will not be accepted and you will be deemed not to have qualified for this Promotional Offer.
How long does my account and qualifying criteria have to remain open?
Your Eligible Personal Banking Account must remain open and in good standing, and the Qualifying Criteria you performed to get the Cash Reward (such as payroll/pension deposit, bill payment or pre-authorized payment) must remain in effect until one year after August 8, 2022.
