Frequently Asked Questions
eAlerts
Broadcast Messages are system-wide alerts generated by the bank and provide important and/or urgent messages such as system services or outage information.
Broadcast Messages will automatically expire after a defined number of days and cannot be deleted by the online banking user.
Consumer online banking users may establish their own eAlerts from within the ‘Messages’ area of the account summary (“Home”) page. Click ‘New’ and follow the on-screen instructions, selecting the type of alert, account number and notification method.
Learn More about detailed instructions on setting up eAlerts.
Some eAlerts are recurring (for example, "Checking Low Balance Alert") and provide notification every day that the criteria are met. Once the criteria have been met and an eAlert notification has been sent via e-mail, that eAlert is deleted, a new one is automatically re-created and is displayed as "Unfulfilled".
The status of an eAlert that has been sent as an online message (not eAlerts sent via e-mail) can be viewed by clicking on "eAlerts" within the 'Messages' area of the online banking home page.
- Unfulfilled - eAlert has been created but not fulfilled (event criteria has not yet been met).
- Fulfilled - eAlert event criteria has been met and online message has been sent (but not yet read).
- Distributed - eAlert online message has been read.
