Q: How could a Canada Post labour disruption impact me?
A:  If there is a Canada Post labour disruption, we can expect an interruption in mail delivery and potentially in other Canada Post services as well. In the event of a labour disruption, printed statements and other documents that you normally receive from us by mail may be delayed or may not be delivered. If there are any documents, cheques, or other items you’d normally mail to us, we may not be able to receive or process them until after the labour disruption ends. There are options available to you, such as choosing to go electronic as detailed below.

 

Q: How do I sign up for electronic statements?
A:
For most Accounts, you can arrange to get your statements and other documents electronically by going to ‘Profile & Settings’. From there, hit ‘General’ and scroll down to choose your Electronic Document preference under ‘Other Communications’. You’ll see your new electronic statement the month following your preference change.

 

Q: When will I receive my Credit Card, Client Card or Cheque Book during the Canada Post Labour Disruption?
A:
For new Credit Card applications, or replacement Card requests, Card delivery may be delayed. For new Chequing Accounts, Clients may experience a delay receiving their Client Card for debit purchases and ABM transactions. Chequebook order and replacement Card delivery may also be delayed.

 

Q: How do I send in a payment for my Credit Card, Line of Credit (Home Equity Line of Credit or Credit Account) and Mortgage?
A: In the event of a postal disruption, you are responsible for continuing to make your payments and keeping your Account in good standing by making at least your Minimum Payments by the Payment Due Dates shown on your statement. You can find your Credit Card or Line of Credit Minimum Payment and Due Date information and make a payment by logging in at tangerine.ca or in the Mobile Banking app. You can also call us at 1-888-826-4374 to get additional information.
For Credit Cards, you can make payments by telephone, through another financial institution, by logging in at tangerine.ca or in the Mobile Banking app. Depending on the method used, payments may take several days to reach us.

Q: When will I receive my printed statements?
A: Printed statements for all Accounts may not be sent until after the labour disruption ends.
You can also arrange to get your statements and other documents electronically for most of your Accounts by logging in and going to 'Profile & Settings’. From there, hit ‘General' and scroll down to choose your Electronic Document preference under ‘Other Communications’. You’ll see your new electronic statement the month following your preference change.
Please note that Mortgages and Tangerine Credit Accounts are paper only Accounts and that in the event of a postal disruption, you are responsible for continuing to make your payments and keeping your Account in good standing by making at least your Minimum Payments by the Payment Due Dates shown on your statement. You can find your Credit Card or Line of Credit Minimum Payment and Due Date information and make a payment by logging in at tangerine.ca or in the Mobile Banking app.

 

Q: What will happen with documents, cheques or other items you’d normally mail to us?
A: We’ll process these as soon as we receive them and will send out any subsequent documents after the labour disruption ends. Remember, you can also use the Cheque-In® feature of our Mobile Banking app to deposit cheques instantly with your smartphone or tablet. Find out how to deposit a cheque here.

Q: How do I make a payment to my line of credit, the Tangerine Credit Account?
A: You’ll still be responsible for ensuring your Credit Account payments are received when due. You can find your Minimum Payment and Due Date information and make your minimum payment by logging in at tangerine.ca or in the Mobile Banking app. If your payment is not received by your payment due date, we’ll continue to auto-debit your payment account monthly.
