Important announcement (August 2023)
Payments via Interac e-Transfer to approved members of Subclass 1 (Loss Time) eligible for a maximum amount of $90 occurred between July 11 and July 13, 2023. All Interac e-Transfer communications were made by email and no text messages were sent. For those who wished to receive their payment by cheque, they were mailed no later than July 19, 2023.
For Class Members who were unable to deposit their e-Transfer at the time of initial distribution, RicePoint will send a second Interac e-Transfer between August 29 and 30, 2023. Interac e-Transfer will be received by email and no text messages will be sent. For members who have not received their cheque and have updated their address, a new cheque will be sent to them.
When you submitted your claim, you were asked to answer one of three (3) security questions. Your answer can only be letters and numbers and not contain accents, spaces or symbols. You will be asked to provide your answer to this question which is required to deposit the wire transfer into your account. If you enter the wrong answer three (3) times, your payment will be blocked.
If you have failed all three (3) attempts to collect your compensation, we invite you to follow these steps:
Starting Tuesday, September 5, 2023, contact RicePoint at 1-888-886-7164.
CAUTION : No text message will be sent to you.
You will not be asked for any other information when depositing the transfer in your account. The procedure will be identical to the one you usually follow to cash an Interac e-Transfer received by email.
