Welcome to Sanford Credit Union Online
Online Fraud Increasing
We have had reports of online fraud increasing in Manitoba. This is where PC's are targeted with viruses and spywear that include "keyloggers" that can capture passwords and other key information that can make your personal and financial information vulnerable. Everything from credit card numbers to account numbers and passwords are at risk.
The best defense is up todate virus protection software. We also strongly recommend members change passwords for online banking at least every 90 days.

SANFORD CU IS GOING GREEN AND YOU CAN HELP IN 2 EASY STEPS
E-Statements are now available
Step 1 - E-statements are now available in CU@HOME. Just click on the E-Statements link after you log in and you will be able to access all your statements since Sept 2010. E-Statements are identical to regular statements (including cheque images) but offer the added convenience of paperless storage. No need to print or save copies for your records: E-Statements are archived for 7 years from date of issue and are available almost immediately after month end. E-statements are available to all members that use CU@HOME immediately with no further action.
Step 2 - Go Paperless. There are many great reasons to go paperless. Maybe you want to declutter, maybe you want to lessen the impact on the environment, now you can do both. You can achieve all that by discontinuing your paper statements and just using E-Statements.
To qualify for discontinuation of paper statements you must be prepared to review and verify your transactions posted to your account by viewing your E-statements on CU@HOME. Any inconsistencies must be reported within 30 days of the posting date of the E-statement. Unfortunately Business/Organizations are not currently able to discontinue receiving paper statements.
TO OPT OUT of receiving paper statements complete the "Discontinue Paper Statements" document and fax, mail or drop off at any SCU branch. These forms are available to fill out at both our branches or can be printed from this web site returned to the branch. Changes made will require one month to take effect so members will get one more statement after they discontinue. Click here to print form.
CHANGE FREQUENCY - If you would still like paper statements, but less often, we also offer quarterly statements. Please note, if you select this frequency it will also apply to your E-Statements. Talk to our Member Service Reps about this option or call 736-2373.
