Choose Paperless
Introducing another new member service thanks to our recent banking system implementation. Eliminate your paper statements by switching to our free and secure e-Statement service. By choosing to go paperless, you can help minimize the energy and waste associated with mailing your paper statement each month.
To discontinue mailed paper statements*, please call us at 905-575-8888 or send an e-mail to Info@HMECU.com.

HMECU’s internet banking website is secured to industry standards. There will no longer be the opportunity for thieves to steal your paper statement from your mailbox, therefore reducing the risk of identity theft and mail-related fraud.
Should I be concerned about my statement privacy? Expand/Collapse
Our e-Statement service provides you with options. Eliminate your paper statement and remove the risk of mail theft, a common form of identity theft. If you prefer to receive a paper statement, these are automatically printed, stuffed and passed directly to Canada Post for shipping. This new process requires fewer steps, less handling and thereby increasing your privacy.

Your e-Statement is available through HMECU’s internet banking site in reliable Adobe PDF format by logging in to internet banking and clicking on "View e-Statements" under My Accounts on the left side of the screen. For added convenience, you can choose to save your e-statement to your home computer or print it if you need to.

E-Statements will be offered as a free service for members with access to our internet banking system.
