My significant other and I have a joint account and both have separate Online Banking sign-ons.  How will e-Statements work?

A statement can only be delivered electronically or via paper.  If party A signs up for e-Statements, the emails will go to the email address on file in Online Banking for the person that signed up for e-Statements. A paper statement will no longer be produced for either account holder.  If party B wants to be able to also view the e-Statement, they will also have to sign up for e-Statements, and then both parties will be able to view the statement online.

What do I do if I see an error on my e-Statement?

Just like you would if you have a paper statement, contact our Operations Department immediately at 508-481-4188.
