  • Statement frequency will continue unchanged, with Members receiving statements 6 monthly or monthly in line with your current selection.
  • Access to online statements is now in one place with no need for a separate Login and Access code. You can view your statements online, including your FCCL historical statements by logging into Internet Banking and clicking on “Account Activity” and then click on “Statements”.
