10 Reasons to Switch to eStatements Now
People are doing more and more online, and now is a great time to add electronic statements from Golden West to your list of online activities, as well.
Replacing paper statements with eStatements offers added convenience and safety benefits. Best of all, everyone who signs up for Golden West web-only statements before the end of July will receive a one-time $10 bill credit.
“I like that my bill is available 24/7,” said Cherie DeMent, Member Services Representative with Golden West who personally receives eStatements. “I can see my bill and manage my payment anytime.”
Here are 10 reasons why you should sign up for eStatements today:
1. Same Statements.
eStatements are an exact replica of the paper statements.
2. Secure.
Access eStatements safely anytime through Golden West’s secure, encrypted online portal using your personal login credentials.
3. Accessible.
Don’t go searching for a bill again. eStatements are available online 24/7. You’ll receive an email each month letting you know your statement is ready. You can also access your statements online a day or so earlier than by mail.
4. Stay Organized.
eStatements are stored for three years online. You can also download them in .pdf file format for offline viewing and personal digital archiving.
5. Reduce Clutter.
Fewer paper bills mean less clutter in your mailbox, on your countertop and in your files. And you’ll have fewer items to shred later.
6. Payment Options.
Quickly and easily pay online using saved bank accounts or credit cards from your eStatement account. For added convenience, sign up for AutoPay.
7. Payment History.
Review your bills and payments easily.
8. Simple.
Grab your last paper statement and set up your eStatement account online in minutes. Be sure to select “web only” statements to receive the promotional offer.
9. Free.
It’s always free to receive eStatements.
10. Get $10!
If you sign up for “web only” statements before the end of July, Golden West will give you a one-time $10 credit on your August bill.*
DeMent says customers like to easily see a list of their payment history in their eStatement account. They like having an electronic record of long distance calls when reviewing billing, as well. She said eStatements simplifies her life.
“I try to do everything paperless,” DeMent said. “I don’t like a lot of mail. I get too much of it already, so I do anything I can to reduce that.”
*Online payment methods are available for all customers at no charge. eStatement promotion ends July 31, 2020. Savings will be applied as a one-time bill credit. Limit one bill credit per account. You must maintain “web only” statements for six months. If you resume mailed paper statements sooner than 6 months, Golden West will bill the promotional offer back to your account.
