Online Banking Made Easy By Equicom Savings Bank

EQUICOM Savings Bank (EqB) recently launched its internet banking service. With the availability of this new online banking facility; enrolled clients nerd not go outside the convenience of their homes or their offices for real-time balance inquiry and for viewing of their statements of accounts.

“Equicom Online is open to those with EqB deposit accounts and holders of all types of Equicom cards,” says Senior Vice President Elizabeth Coronel. “This service has real-time, month-to-date statements. Clients can view specific periods within the past 12 months or any period up to 90 days within the past 12 months. Here, they can verify their balances and all their banking transactions across any of their EqB cards or accounts real-time, that is, even with their most recent approved transactions.”

With Equicom Online Statement Viewing, clients can also view the front and back images of issued checks from their checking accounts and detailed reports for supported auto-credit transactions.

Some of the added conveniences in Equicom Online include the Quick Inquiry which can be used by prepaid card, gift card, and rewards cardholders even without enrollment, and the Bancnet Online, which lets Equicom debit cardholders (ATM and/or prepaid) perform ATM- like non-cash transactions via internet banking. Other transactions not requiring enrollment include balance inquiry, checkbook request, and fund transfer across current and savings accounts linked to the ATM card. Meanwhile, inter-bank fund transfer to other accounts with Bancnet member banks requires pre-enrollment.

Personal and corporate internet banking services may be accessed via the client’s enrolled user name and password. Quick Inquiry only requires the card number, and Bancnet Online requires the card number and PIN to process transactions. All internet bunking transactions are free of charge except for inter-bank funds transfer.

Complementing EqB’s online banking service is the Equicom Mobile Banking. Perfect for people constantly on the go, this service lets the clients access important mobile transactions at their fingertips; whenever, wherever. Among the banking transactions that are accessible include: real-time balance inquiry for accounts or cards; quick balance inquiry; the viewing of the last five transactions of their deposit accounts; fund transfer across their accounts; Equicom Cash Card loading from their accounts; and payment for Equicom Credit Card from their accounts.
