Companies in the news:
Toronto-Dominion Bank. (TSX:TD). Finance. Up 13 cents, or 0.16 per cent to $80.71. TD Bank Group said Friday that its direct deposit system has been hit by technical issues that are preventing account holders from getting paid. The bank started getting inundated early Friday on social media with customers raising concern about being unable to pay bills and automatic payments putting their accounts into the negative. The bank said that any fees incurred due to missing direct deposits would be refunded once the issue is resolved. As of late afternoon Friday, the bank said on Twitter that it still had no timeline as to when it would be able to fix the problem.
BCE Inc. (TSX:BCE). Telecom. Up 28 cents, or 0.47 per cent, to $60.28; and Rogers Communications Inc. (TSX:RCI.B). Telecom. Down 37 cents, or 0.63 per cent, to $58.03; and Telus Corp. (TSX:T). Telecom. Up 31 cents, or 1.22 per cent, to $25.73. BCE Inc. has requested that the federal telecommunications regulator intervene amid its dispute with Rogers Communications Inc. over wireless access on Toronto's subway network. The parent company of Bell Canada asked the CRTC on Thursday to prohibit Rogers from adding its customers to the network until it ensures it is technically feasible to provide access to all carriers. Urging the CRTC to ensure Rogers does not "exploit its role as gatekeeper," Bell's application said such an order would provide safeguards so "Rogers does not stand to profit from denying or delaying access." Bell and Telus Corp. have both pointed to the consortium model used by the Montreal Metro for its wireless network as the ideal approach for the TTC, rejecting a pay-for-access model.
