This is wild. Here in the UK we just transfer money from bank to bank in an instant using the banks own app.

Same here in Canada, e-transfer with 0 fees is pretty normal.

It's been a while since I did it but you can authorize it so all e-transfers are automatically accepted and deposited. I can't think of a scenario where that would be a bad thing.

Yeah, I have auto-deposit enabled.
