Several payroll deposits could not be deposited in the bank accounts of Desjardins users on Thursday.
“Some payroll deposits from other financial institutions were not processed as usual,” said Jean-Benoît Turcotti, spokesperson for the banking institution at Agence QMI.
Several citizen members of Desjardins were worried, Thursday morning, not to have received their pay.
According to the spokesperson, “payroll deposits stopped overnight.”
The latter, however, could not specify whether it was a technical problem or a hack or the exact number of people affected by the problem.
“We’re going to make sure it’s [settled] as soon as possible,” he said simply.
