Why can't I view my statement in Online Access?

The "Statement" option inside Online Access has been replaced with e-Statements. However, you can still view all history of your accounts from Online Access. There are two ways to do this:

  1. Sign on to Online Access and click the "Accounts" option. A new screen will load which will display all of your accounts at the credit union. You may then click the hyperlink of any account to display the history of the respective account. For example: If you wish to view the history of your checking account, click the "Share Draft" link. The history of your checking/share draft account will display up to 3 months.
  2. Sign on the Online Access and click the "More Features" option. This will display additional options. One of the additional options is "Statement" which is the previous statement option. You may click this option and choose the date period you wish to view in a plain text environment.

I sign on to e-Statements, but there is nothing available?

When you register for e-Statements and sign on for the first time (before you are sent a monthly notification), there will be no statements available. Your e-Statements will begin to accumilate on the month ending when you sign up for e-Statements.

For example: If you sign up for e-Statements in September, you will receive your first e-Statement in October for September's statement cycle. Thereafter, we will store your statements up to 12 months.
