Four great reasons to receive eStatements and eCommunications:
It’s quicker
Before our paper statements have even finished printing, you receive an email notification advising that your statement is available for immediate viewing on Internet Banking.
Plus, you receive our latest news as it happens.
It’s safer
Your eStatements reside safe and secure on our Internet Banking site accessible only by you.
It’s smarter
As all your eStatements are stored in one centralised location, you never waste time hunting around for a paper-based statement. And with reduced costs, it allows us to give more back to our members (you).
And it’s greener
You’re playing a major role in helping us do even more towards reducing our carbon footprint.
