Three million core banking customers go paperless at TD Canada Trust

    TORONTO, April 24 /CNW/ - As Canadians celebrate Earth Week, TD Canada
Trust today announced it has surpassed three million paperless banking
customers. In the last year alone these customers - who have signed up for TD
Canada Trust's Paperless Record Keeping option - have saved more than 35
million sheets of paper.
    "Our customers tell us they want green options and we've responded, from
paperless banking to green mortgages to a discount on your auto insurance if
you drive a hybrid," said Chris Stamper, Vice President, Core Banking and
Debit Payments, TD Canada Trust. "We're thrilled our customers are embracing
environmentally friendly choices and if we can stay on pace, we'll reach four
million paperless banking customers by the end of the year."
    Paperless Record Keeping is available at no charge for TD chequing and
savings account holders. Up to 18 months of transaction records can be viewed
and customers can access their records online through EasyWeb, over the phone
with EasyLine, or in-person at a TD Canada Trust branch or at a Green Machine
ABM.
    TD Canada Trust also offers a Green Mortgage and Green Home Equity Line
of Credit (HELOC). Customers are eligible for a one per cent discount off the
posted interest rate and up to a one per cent cash rebate when making ENERGY
STAR qualified purchases. Also, TD will donate $100 to the TD Friends of the
Environment Foundation at the time of the rebate. Visit

    "Making simple decisions like choosing our paperless banking option can
have a real impact on the environment. We're saving more than just paper -
we're also saving water, energy, greenhouse gas emissions and solid waste
associated with the manufacturing process of paper," added Stamper.
