Toronto, ON – Veridian Connections Inc. (Veridian) has recently added its electricity bill to epost, Canada Post’s digital mailbox. Veridian joins the more than 100 national and local businesses and government organizations in the country that send bills and statements ranging from hydro, property tax, telecommunications, credit cards and more through epost.

Customers served by the electric utility will now be able to search for their electricity bills through their epost account.

“Now with more local mailers in Ontario along with the range of national ones, epost becomes more convenient and valuable to the household manager because they can organize, store and pay the majority of their bills from one place with one sign in online,” says Kerry Munro, Group President, Digital Delivery Network at Canada Post. “And for anyone who already banks online, having your bills in epost makes it easier to pay and avoid any potential late fees.”

Forty two per cent of Ontarians have registered epost digital mailboxes. epost offers one place with one login and password to view and manage household bills or statements. It also links directly to the major banks enabling seamless online banking for payment. Unlike email that can have privacy concerns, epost offers a high level of security that keeps personal and sensitive information safe.

“Veridian is committed to adopting technologies that provide added convenience for our customers,” explains Rob Scarffe, Vice President, Customer S ervice and Information Technology at Veridian. “With no paper bills to open or file, we’re giving customers another easy-to-use platform to manage their bills in a more environmentally friendly manner that’s safe and secure.”

epost is the largest bill consolidation solution in Canada. With more than 8 million Canadians having registered with epost, and more than 250 bills and statements available, epost has a robust, safe and secure foundation that allows Canada Post to continue enhancing the scope of services available.
