Digital Statements

What are Digital Statements?

Digital Statements are an electronic version of your bank account statements. They hold exactly the same information as your paper statements.

How to access your Digital Statements?

You will automatically receive an email or SMS notification each time your statement is available.
The notification message will include a unique URL which explains how to generate a One Time PIN (OTP) to enable you to securely access your Digital Statement.
The Digital Statement can then be easily downloaded, saved and stored as needed.

Please note that the unique URL for each statement will only be valid for 60 days.

Why Digital Statements make sense

Secure

Digital Statements help minimise your risk of identity theft. The security question and OTP verification process helps to improve your safety online.

Convenient

Access Digital Statements anywhere, available online for 60 days once generated. If you need to access your statements after 60 days you can contact us to register for Internet banking.

Clutter-free

Store Digital Statements electronically instead of having paper statements around your home.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if I have nominated Third Parties to receive a paper statement?

When you enrol for Digital Statements, additional statements set up for Third Parties will be suppressed. This means that paper statements will no longer be supplied.

How secure are Digital Statements?

Digital Statements are stored on secure servers so you're protected against identity and mail theft that can be associated with paper statements. You’ll receive an email/SMS notification when the statement is available to be accessed, you’ll then need to answer a security question to receive a unique One Time PIN (OTP) to your nominated phone number or email address to gain access to view your statement.

Will my Digital Statement look the same as the paper statement I receive in the mail?

Can I request the Digital Statement again after the 60 days have passed?

Once the Digital Statement duration expires, i.e. after 60 days of the notification, you will be able to request your previously issued paper statements from your nearest branch or by contacting Customer Care on 13 13 76. Unfortunately, at this stage we cannot resend your Digital Statement.

What if I still want to receive paper statements?
