Interac e-transfer is not working today? I wanted to send some money to my crypto and Shakepay accounts, but it didn't work, and I had to call my bank twice to cancel it 😑

Interac being down on the 1st of the month for hours with no update on when this is supposed to be fixed is soooooo ******* foul

Hearing that Interac e-transfer is down.

Interac Etransfer is down. #Bitcoin still works.

#Banks Canada Interac not working. Head’s up!

The funniest thing was when our nation's only debit card network (Interac) collapsed for a day, and only MasterCard and Visa credit cards worked, because Rogers had a nationwide outage, and Interac used Rogers, but Interac had a separate backup network, that was actually Rogers.

Maybe I’m just a big bad wolf… like you want me to tell you that Interac doesn’t work when there’s an outage without having a stroke?

Serioulsy @scotiabank @ScotiabankHelps you have the WORST IT of any bank I have ever been with, I STILL can't add an @INTERAC e transfer contact this is ridiculous, and you went down again last weekend. Fire the CTO reinstate public trust @CBCToronto @CP24 @PatForanCTVNews
