Walden Federal Introduces
Online Banking Enhancements
Walden, NY,
April 1, 2009 – Walden Federal has implemented several enhancements to its
online eBank service, today announced Tom Gibney, President.
Customers can
now set up alerts for their Walden Federal eBank accounts and have email or
text messages sent to their computers or cell phones. Alerts can include notification that an
account balance has reached a specified level, or notification of deposits or
withdrawals. Alerts are sent within 24
hours of the triggering event. There is no
charge for this alert service.
“We are
continuously working to provide the latest services that our customers want,”
stated Thomas Gibney. “Walden Federal is
truly a safe and secure community bank, but a community bank with all the
latest banking products and services that customers need and expect.”
Online eStatements
are now also available to Walden Federal eBank customers.
Currently eStatements
are available for the past 8 months of activity and will eventually be
available for a year. eStatements open
in a PDF type format, and can be printed or exported to Quicken or Excel.
They have a built in reconciliation feature that provides the tools that
customers need to reconcile their checkbook. Customers can click on any
check, and an image of the check (front and back) will open, which can also be
printed. Customers can also select to view all checks on the statement at
once, and can print front, back or both, and select different size images.
Each month customers receive an email at the address they have on record with
Walden Federal’s eBank notifying them that their online statement is available.
eStatements are available within a day or two after the end of the month,
which is faster than when statements are mailed. There is no charge for
eStatements at Walden Federal.
Walden Federal
maintains six full-service branches including Walden, Montgomery, Newburgh,
Otisville, inside the Wal-Mart Super Center in Monroe and inside the Shoprite
in Monroe. Walden Federal’s Mortgage and
Loan Center is located at 74 West Main St, Walden and its Commercial Loan Annex
is located at 8 Main St, Walden.
The bank is
part of the Allpoint ATM network, giving its customers access to their money at
37,000 surcharge-free ATMs located nationwide and in Europe.
Walden Federal
continues to prosper and grow as it enters its 90th year of service
to the Hudson Valley community. For more
