As a result, they have missed out on significant value by paying thousands in fees while earning little-to no interest over much of their adult lives. With the beloved digital bank's latest brand campaign, EQ Bank is raising awareness for the possibility of a second chance at Canadians' first bank accounts. This marks the first time that Eugene and Dan Levy have been featured together in an advertising campaign.
