Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I access Pay a Bill, Pay a Person, and Transfer Money in online banking? Desktop: From the top navigation menu, click Payments and Transfers.
Mobile App: From the bottom navigation menu, select Bill Pay or More > External Transfers.
How do I enroll in online bill pay? In online banking, simply click the Payments and Transfers link and then Pay a Bill/Send Money. Accept the terms and conditions and you are ready to go.
Why does one of my billers have a yellow highlight? This means that we need more information in order to process a bill payment to this biller. Everything we need to pay your bill should be included in your most recent bill or statement from the biller.
Why did my bill payment get paid with a check instead of electronically? During the conversion to our new online bill payment system, if any of the information was changed, that may have caused a paper check to be issued. Resolve this by making sure the biller information is up to date in online banking.
If my bill is paid with a check, can I see the image? Yes, you will be able to view the check image in your Account History in online banking and our mobile app.
How long does it take for money to reach my biller to pay my bill? Electronic payments made prior to 5:00 pm ET will be delivered the next business day (holidays and weekends are not considered business days). Check payments made prior to 5:00 pm ET will be delivered within 7 calendar days (holidays and weekend are not considered calendar days).
Why is the address of my biller not showing? If your biller is paid electronically, the mailing address will not be displayed.
Is it possible to hide a biller if I’m not paying them? No, the hide biller is no longer available. However, you can delete the biller if you no longer need to make payments. If you need to access bill payment history for a payee you have deleted, please contact our Customer Care team.
When will the money for my bill be deducted from my account? Electronic payments will be deducted from your account on the date that you select as the “Send” date when you schedule your bill. Payments made by check will be deducted from your account the day the biller deposits it into their account and clears your account.
If payments are scheduled on a holiday, Saturday, or Sunday, when will my payment be paid? The first business day following the weekend or holiday.
Can I edit a payment or external transfer once scheduled? You can change or cancel your payment up until 5:00 pm ET on the scheduled send date.
How do I get a text or email when a payment is paid? Set up your email and text notifications in the settings of Payments and Transfers. Select the gear icon, scroll down to Payment Alerts. You are able to set up email or text alerts for all bills and payments.
