Customers put TD at the top in Canadian retail banking customer
    satisfaction

    TORONTO, Aug. 30 /CNW/ - For the second consecutive year, TD Canada Trust
ranks highest in customer satisfaction among the big five Canadian retail
banks, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 Canadian Retail Banking
Customer Satisfaction Study(SM). In a study that was conducted in February and
July of 2007, TD was singled out for its convenience and innovation, and
scored top points among 11,325 customers surveyed on key drivers that
determine satisfaction including: transaction methods; account set up/product
offerings; facility; account statements; and problem resolution.
    "We put everything we have into being the bank that serves customers the
best, so to achieve this ranking is very gratifying," said Tim Hockey, Group
Head, Personal Banking and Co-Chair TD Canada Trust.
    A TD Canada Trust customer loyalty survey commissioned earlier this year
and extensive ongoing customer consultations at TD reveal that face-to-face
service and convenience continue to be very important to Canadians in their
banking relationships. J.D. Power and Associates results further demonstrate
those findings.
    Convenience is so important to customers, that in an industry-leading
move, TD Canada Trust is extending its opening hours, already the longest in
Canada, beginning November 1st, 2007. The bank also continues to open more
branches in more places - from vibrant inner city neighbourhoods to rapidly
growing suburban and rural communities - than any other bank.
    For those who choose to bank in other ways, TD Canada Trust recently
upgraded its entire network of over 2,500 ABMs, and has introduced popular new
features to its award-winning internet banking service, EasyWeb, including the
Canadian industry's first free downloadable anti-phishing tool. EasyLine, TD
Canada Trust's award winning telephone banking service has specialists
available to meet customers' banking needs around the clock, from anywhere in
the world.
    The highest customer satisfaction ranking by J.D. Power and Associates
comes right on the heels of another major customer service award. Earlier this
week, and for the third year in a row, TD Canada Trust was recognized by
Synovate for being the best in overall customer service.
    "We're very proud to be receiving this kind of recognition for our
customer service and we accept it as a challenge to keep getting better and
better. The accolades really belong to the thousands of TD Canada Trust
employees across Canada who give their all every day for our customers." said
Hockey.
