Alerts
You live a busy life. Let our text or email alerts help you manage your SESLOC accounts automatically.

- For each alert you set up, you can customize many options, including selecting the frequency and which delivery method you want to receive the alert. The options are Secure Message Only (only be delivered within Online Banking), Email, Phone and Text. Note there is no global option for selecting the delivery method (except on Security Alerts). This allows flexibility allows you to prioritize your alerts. For example, send most important alerts via text if you are a always near your smartphone, and the less important alerts to your email if you don't check it as regularly.

Note, the preferences selected in Security Alerts are different than in Security Preferences. Navigate to Security Preferences > Secure Delivery.
