eStatement Terms and Conditions
Electronic statements (eStatements)
On certain accounts, any account holder or authorised user may elect to receive statements electronically. Once you have made the election, you will no longer receive paper based statements for that account by normal mail. You may opt out of receiving eStatements at any time and revert to received paper based statements by mail at any time.
Where the account is in joint names, or there are authorised users on the account who elect to receive statements, each account holder/authorised user may elect not to receive any statements on the account, either paper based or electronic, provided that at least one account holder or authorised user continues to receive statements. Joint account holders may separately request eStatements or paper statements.
Any joint account holder or authorised signatory who opts in to receive electronic statements will be able to access all previous statements from 1st January 2011 for those accounts.
Notices of variable loan rate repayment decreases are included on your account statement. If you opt to receive eStatements for your variable loan account, you agree that you will also be receiving notice of your repayment reductions electronically. Please note that you will continue to receive a separate notification where there is an increase to your variable loan interest rate or repayment.
