"A|X is extremely happy with the assistance and service Montridge has provided to us over the years. Their role has really expanded recently as our organization continues to grow with the addition of new stores throughout Canada. With our rapid expansion in several provinces, Montridge has proven to be an invaluable partner as we work on creating new and/or expanded benefit programs for our Canadian employees. We look forward to working with them as we continue to expand in the upcoming years."

"Working with Montridge Financial has been a great partnership for BBD over the years. They are terrific advocates for their clients, are considerate and supportive of our needs, and are highly respected within the industry. They take the time to identify client’s needs, design a benefits plan to meet those needs, then find the right fit for their client. We are delighted to be associated with such a client-focused organization!"

"Montridge Financial Group has been the benefits consultant for two organizations where I have been the director. It was because of their excellent customer service that I thought of them when my new organization was looking at switching benefit companies. They are friendly, professional and extremely responsive when we have problems or questions with our benefits insurers. We not only receive great service, but service that is prompt.

More recently we have contracted with Montridge to handle our RRSPs for our staff team. The Montridge team checks in with us on a regular basis and provides educational sessions for staff upon request.
I have recommended Montridge Financial Group to other colleagues and do not hesitate to recommend them to you."

"I have worked with Montridge for the past few years at both my previous company and my current company. One thing I believe that sets Montridge apart, and something that I truly appreciate, is their customer service and personalized approach. Navigating the world of benefits and insurance can sometimes be daunting and it’s fantastic to have experts there to help explain and be the intermediary between our company and the insurance companies to ensure our organization and our employee's needs are being met."

"Browns Socialhouse began working with Montridge several years ago, when we had two locations. Since then, Montridge has gone above and beyond to ensure each new addition to the Browns chain enjoys a smooth transition onto our fair and reliable benefits plan. As primary administrator for our now 13-locations family, I can always count on quick, thorough, and clear answers to my questions, and always with a professional and friendly style. I highly recommend Montridge to other multiple location systems."

"We considered a benefit plan for our small company more than seven years ago. John Medrzycki came to see us and it was obvious he was very professional and knew what he was talking about.

Montridge represents the epitome of service. We always feel that John goes to bat for us, and continues to convey an air of excitement when talking about his service and the industry he works in.

We have been approached many times by people stating they could 'save us money' on our benefit plan. We have never considered changing. Service is what sets companies apart and Montridge is all about service."
