Service Restoration

MPI is working to fully restore services for customers that were cancelled, discontinued or limited during the labour interruption. This process may mean increased wait times at our physical locations and Contact Centre, as well as delays for certain services and appointments. We appreciate your patience during this time.  

As MPI will be contacting individuals whose appointments have been cancelled during the labour interruption to reschedule, customers should ensure that the contact information associated with their MPI customer account is up-to-date and accurate. To do so, they are encouraged to visit an Autopac broker to verify and update this information, if required.  

This page will continue to be updated as service restoration increases.
