Comments, dissatisfactions and complaints
Our commitment
We're committed to providing quality service that meets your highest expectations. By sharing your comments, complaints or dissatisfactions with us, you help us to better understand your real needs and improve the quality of the services you receive.
Procedure
Step 1 – Talk to an employee or manager
If you're not satisfied with a product or service, first contact an employee or manager. They'll examine your issue and attempt to resolve it quickly.
Check your documents to find the contact information for the appropriate department.
You can also call 1-514-286-3100 or 1-800-361-6840.
Specify whether your request concerns trust services for individuals, trust services for businesses or asset custody.
Step 2 – Desjardins Complaints handling team
Not satisfied with the response in Step 1, or haven’t heard back in 20 days? The Desjardins Complaints Handling team will automatically take over your file—you don’t need to do anything. They’ll give you a final answer within 60 days from when Step 1 began.
The Desjardins Complaints Handling team manages complaints from members and clients fairly and efficiently, at no cost. They use a framework that complies with the quality standards set out in the applicable regulations.
Before contacting the Desjardins Complaints Handling team, make sure you’ve completed Step 1. To help us get back to you quickly, please include your first and last name and your phone number. If you prefer to send your complaint by email, remember to follow good security practices and share minimal personal or sensitive information.

Step 3 – Ask to have your file transferred
If you’re not satisfied with the way your complaint is handled or the final response from the Desjardins Complaints Handling team, you can choose to contact an independent dispute resolution service offered by a regulatory authority or organization in your province. Note that filing a complaint does not have any bearing on the time you have to file a civil claim.
