I received a request to visit Canada Post to validate my ID?

If you have received a request to visit a Canada Post (retail) location to validate your ID, it is crucial to complete this step to ensure the security of your account and comply with federal regulations.  

We recommend you check Canada Post hours and call ahead to ensure the location you visit offers the ID verification service, as some locations may be impacted by the labour disruption. 

I had a promotional offer and/or welcome offer when I signed up for a new credit card, but I have not received my credit card? 

MBNA promotional offers and welcome bonuses impacted due to the Canada Post Strike will still be honoured.
