Description
Images of cheques, front and back, can be viewed using the Balance Reporting - Query function. The images are available for 90 days from the posting date and can be printed or saved.
Notes:
- A fee of $1.50 will be charged in Canadian dollars for each cheque image viewed. The Fee will appear on your next monthly Balance Reporting / Payments and Transfers billing statement.
- Cheque images are provided in an Adobe PDF format, allowing you to print or save the image in order to avoid an additional fee which will apply each time you view the image of the cheque.
- Images are not available for American Banking Association Format (e.g. Micro Access).
