If you’re a PSECU member, you’ve likely heard a lot from us about the importance of keeping your account safe so that your money can stay where it belongs – with you.
One of the ways that we’ve made this easy for you is by providing free account alerts that notify you when certain activity occurs on your account.
Why Should I Sign Up for Alerts?
The purpose of these alerts is to let you know that a change has been made to your account, such as an address update, or that an activity has occurred, such as an ATM withdrawal or a purchase. These alerts aren’t just helpful notifications about your account activity, but also a means for identifying fraudulent transactions or changes you didn’t approve. If you receive a notification for a change or transaction you or another authorized user didn’t make, you can contact us for help securing your account. You can also lock/unlock your credit and debit card within Manage Cards in online and mobile banking.
What Alerts are Available?
There are over 30 different alerts available, including transactional alerts such as a withdrawal or deposit at an ATM, bill payer notification, or Overdraft Protection Transfer Service notification, and account maintenance alerts such as a card limit increase, loan payment due, or password change. To see the full list, follow the directions below to sign up for alerts.
