Changes to Online Banking & HFS App
Accounts You’ll See- You may notice more or less accounts than you did before. Members will now be able to view all accounts and loans that they are authorized to see. This includes Business and Trust Accounts and loans for borrowers and co-borrowers.
Transaction Descriptions- While viewing your account history, you may notice slightly different descriptions for some of your transactions.
Member to Member Transfers- Although this service is changing, you may notice that it now asks for a Share ID or Loan ID instead of a Suffix to transfer the funds to. This ID is 4 numbers long and can be found on your details page. Here’s some common IDs you may use:
0000 = Savings Account
0008= Checking Account
Real-Time Balances- If you’ve become accustomed to seeing the green bar as your accounts were updating, this will no longer show up. Balances will now be shown in real-time when you log in.
Pending Transactions- Great news for our debit card users! With the upgrade, you’ll now be able to see pending card transactions. You’ll also be able to see pending payroll distributions. Please note that there will be a date included in the description stating when the funds will be posted and available.
Loan History– If you have a loan, you’ll notice a difference with your payment history within Online Banking. Any loan payments made prior to June 1st are displayed in green with a + sign. Any payments made moving forward, will show in black with a – sign. This visual change does not impact your payments in any way.
NEW Loan Payments Tab- In the menu, under Transactions will be a new tab “Loan Payments”. Easily make payments to your HFS loans and credit cards! You can even use this page to get your payoff amount information or make principal payments.
NEW eNotices- No need to wait for the mail any more. With eNotices, you’ll quickly be notified of important matters regarding your account. Click on Services, then Statements to view your notices (but you’ll also receive an email when one is ready for you).
