Manulife Financial Telephone Numbers - Insurance & Investing

Manulife Financial Canada

Manulife Financial is one of Canada's largest financial companies, with a whole ton of international operations too.

Their phone numbers can be a bit hard to find as they have so many products and operations, so I've created this page with all of the telephone numbers in one place.
Manulife's website is also horrendous, and doesn't work on 3 major web browsers that I tried to use.

So here are all of Manulife's telephone numbers, and email addresses, for customer service, complaints, problems, payment issues, etc.

Group Savings

Use this number for Manulife Group Retirement Savings plans
1-888-727-7766

Group Benefits

I personally have no idea when you'd use which of these telephone numbers, so hopefully you do! (PS: These ones are based in Burlington, Ontario, I guess they're the old AIC Mutual Funds units)

Manulife Complaints

Generally, with any consumer complaints, work from the bottom up. If you don't get what you want from the CSR you call, try calling another CSR at another time and re-tell your story. If this strategy fails, ask the Customer Service Rep for a manager in that department.
If that doesn't work, ask for your complaint to be moved up to the complaints unit, or the Client Relations Department.
Even if that doesn't work, there are still various consumer organizations (like the Ombudsman for Life and Health Insurance) that can help out.
Use your own judgement as for when you think you should proceed in a written manner instead of with phone calls.
For the most part, complaints are beyond the scope of this article, but please feel free to comment with your experiences, suggestions, and if the competition is any better!
