Piedmont Advantage eStatements

Learn why most members prefer paperless bank statements.

What are eStatements?

eStatements are electronic versions of your printed statements. They are provided in a Portable Document Format (PDF) since this format is widely used for all types of official documents like your statements. PDF files maintain the documents’ original formatting and are easily viewed from your desktop or mobile device to use as a paperless bank statement or downloaded and printed if you need a hard copy.

Why Do Most PACU Members Prefer Paperless Bank Statements?

Members have shared that they appreciate the added convenience and security that eStatements offers.

Convenience

eStatements can be accessed anytime and anywhere as long as there is internet; and they are available sooner than mailed paper statements.

Security

eStatements reduce the risk of personal information being stolen from your mailbox, a risk associated with paper statements. Online and mobile banking systems have security measures in place.

Archiving

eStatements are easier to store and organize on your desktop or cloud storage service, saving physical storage space and making it easier to retrieve past statements when needed.

Environmental

Opting for eStatements helps reduce the use of paper, which is better for the environment. This appeals to our eco-conscious members who wish to minimize their environmental footprint.

Cost-Savings

There is a $3 fee per statement for paper statements to cover costs associated with printing and mailing these documents each month. As a member-owned cooperative, we aim to pass on savings to you, and promoting cost-effective practices like eStatements helps achieve this goal.
