If you’re still waiting for your printed statements every month, there’s a better way to keep track of your finances: eStatements. Here are five reasons why eStatements are a great choice:

1. **Immediate availability.** No more waiting for the mail to arrive before you can see your banking activity each month! eStatements are delivered to your inbox as soon as they’re available from LSCU.

**2.** **Eco-friendly.** Remember that campaign from the 1980s asking us all to “hug a tree”? eStatements are a little like hugging a tree, because no paper is needed to generate them!

**3.** **Stay organized.** No more filing, no more papers piling up in the corner of your office. With eStatements, you can keep your records organized online in the filing system of your choosing.

**4.** **Increased security.** eStatements are delivered securely to you, lessoning the fraud risk posed when mail is misdelivered or stolen from mailboxes.

5. **Easy signup. **If you’re ready to switch to eStatements, enrolling is simple:

- Login to online banking to change your statement preference
- Find the "Your Preferences" tab on the menu bar
- Click on "eStatement Selection"
- Choose "electronic"

Not sure eStatements are for you? Give them a try. If you aren't happy viewing your statement online, you can change your statement preference anytime.
