TD Canada Trust Breaches Security

The TDCT branch 0092 in Cambridge has failed to protect account information. Ryan Janicki, manager, refuses to address this serious breach. Rapidgo has been forced to upgrade the complaint to the banks ombudsman who says it takes two months to investigate a security breach. Beware of this branch and protect your information from being used by thieves.

Further to the post regarding this branch in Cambridge refusing to deposit cheques without Inc as part of the payee line, Rapidgo has approached other banks and has been informed that they do not even consider the issue important. It looks like the bank culture at this branch is rogue.

Valentine’s Day Flowers “A Hit” With Customers

Compare costs of having a company driver and owning a vehicle ( 5 ton, or cargo van ) versus making a simple, fast call to Rapidgo Inc

Consider:

Cost of vehicle - $1000 plus/mo, insurance - $500 plus per month, licensing/CVOR/inspection - $35 plus/month, repairs-transmission $4-7000, maintenance - oil change $200, hiring driver - attract and interview - $4-500, hourly wage - $12-15/hr benefits/sick time, and holidays, keeping the driver busy if not driving to recover costs.

Downside:

Truck breaks down - lose time and need to call Rapidgo anyway

Driver injures themselves, gets disabled, quits, is the wrong person for the company

Company truck going in one direction and delivery/pickup needed in opposite direction

For 5 ton, driver out of hours for evening or weekend work

Driver does not own the vehicle and therefore has no vested interest in upkeep, in fact if truck breaks down, they get paid anyway

Solution:

Call Rapidgo for all your transportation needs; rest easy, and better spend your time, knowing it will be done professionally
