Happy Client

It's been 8 years now that I'm with Tangerine. I took advantage of an offer giving me fifty dollars to try them. All went well and I ended up leaving my banking institution to stop paying unnecessary fees. You also can get $50 in bonus by opening your Tangerine account with an orange key and depositing $100.
