Consent to Electronic Delivery of Account Statements, Loan Bills, Disclosures and Communications:

When you sign up for BankNewport’s Digital Documents and Loan Bills Service through Digital Banking, you will be required to select the accounts that you wish to receive your periodic account statements or loan bills electronically. The Statements and Loan Bills Service will contain the same content as the paper version. The choice, (paper or Statements and/or Loan Bills) that is recorded on our system on the day the statement or bill is generated will be the only statement or billing method used to deliver that month’s statement(s) or bill(s).

In addition, when you sign up for the Statements and electronic Loan Bills Service through Digital Banking, you further agree that other disclosures and communications related to any of your deposit accounts or loans with BankNewport, and for which you receive electronic account statements and/or loan bills, may also be sent to you electronically via this Service.

We will send an email to the email address that you have on file within Digital Banking to advise you when your Statement(s) and/or Loan Bill(s) is available for viewing. It is your responsibility to ensure that your current email address is within Digital Banking. Once you have updated your email address in Digital Banking, you will need to view your statement(s) to communicate the email change for your Statements and/or Loan Bills notifications.

Deposit Account Statements:

Your account statements will become available through the Statements and electronic Loan Bills service shortly after the end of your statement cycle period. In the case of checking or money market accounts, the account statement may be available to you even before all of the images of your cancelled checks have been processed. However, Statements are updated multiple times each day and as soon as your check images are processed, they will be made available to you through the Service. Your account statements will become available through this Service incrementally each month after you enroll in the Service. Statements will be available for sixteen (16) months and thereafter the oldest statement will be deleted when the most recent statement becomes available through the Service. If you wish to retain your statements for a longer period of time, you should download them or print them during the sixteen (16) months that they are available through the Service.

BankNewport retains the last 7 years of your account statements and checks.
