Monitoring
Due to a technical issue at the Bank of Montreal (BMO), EDI bill payments for May 29, to billers using BMO as their lead bank, were delayed. All payments, except for those for BC Hydro and Capital One Mastercard, were processed by BMO on June 2. Please note that EDI billers honour the original payment date when applying payments so there will be no impact to customer accounts.
Payments for BC Hydro and Capital One Mastercard are still being investigated. We are following up with BMO and will provide an update as soon as possible.
