TD bank: Time sensitive decision day in Canada
Where we go one person, one community, one country, we go all.
The bigger picture
Many Canadians and TD agents remain unaware of a quiet roll out of digital ID effective Apr 24, 2023 by Toronto Dominion bank.
Late in the day Apr 21, 2023, TD customer care confirmed customer responses over the week-end take effect the same day the customer responds to TD Agreement changes.
The TD Cardholder Agreement contains two new Agreements that require customers to refuse, otherwise they agree to the terms and conditions.
Ask a TD branch manager or call TD customer care 1 888 661 9029 or email customercare@td.com to ask what happens if you refuse only the TD Digital Banking Agreement? Can you still use your TD access/debit card freely?

What are the risks of digital ID?
Aug 2022
”We are on the road to Beijing, and Canadians should be apprehensive,” says lawyer John Carpay, President of the Justice Centre.
“Things are moving fast, and Canadians should be very concerned that a free and democratic society is quickly headed towards a society where citizens can be cancelled by the government with the flick of a switch,” warns Mr. Carpay.
