Escalate to the Senior Customer Complaints Office

The Senior Customer Complaints Office is an impartial body within TD responsible for reviewing customer complaints that remain unresolved after the completion of the first two steps of TD’s customer problem resolution process.

The Senior Customer Complaints Office will investigate complaints and act as a liaison between customers and all business areas within TD Bank Group in Canada. The Senior Customer Complaints Office is employed by TD Bank Group. While the Senior Customer Complaints Office does not report directly to any business areas in order to protect the office's impartiality, it is not an independent dispute resolution service. The mandate of the Senior Customer Complaints Office is to review your concerns and provide a response that is objective and unbiased.

When escalating to the Senior Customer Complaints Office, please be sure to provide us with your contact information, details of your concerns, and your proposed resolution. You can send your complaints to:

Email: td.scco@td.com

Mail: Attn: Senior Customer Complaints Office P.O. Box 1, Toronto-Dominion Centre Toronto, ON M5K 1A2

If you have questions about the Senior Customer Complaints Office's process, or require assistance in escalating your complaint, you can reach us at 1-888-361-0319 or visit our website for more information:

https://www.td.com/ca/en/about-td/customer-care/senior-customer-complaints-office

 

The use of the Senior Customer Complaints Office is voluntary. The estimated time that the Senior Customer Complaints Office takes to review and provide a response to matters varies; however,

complex investigations may take longer to resolve. Please note that statutory limitation periods may continue to run while the Senior Customer Complaints Office reviews a complaint, which could impact the ability to commence a civil action.

 

For Personal Banking, Business Banking, Lending Services, Private Banking, and Private Trust Complaints

You can submit your complaint to the OBSI for review once you have received a response in writing from Senior Customer Complaints Office and wish to escalate, or after 56 days have passed since you raised your complaint in Step 1.
