How do I log in and get started?
-
Getting started with ClickSWITCH is easy! Once you’ve been enrolled, you’ll need the SwitchTRACK code provided to you during enrollment (from the credit union)
OR activate your ClickSWITCH account through the Welcome Email you will receive (or have received) from CES Credit Union.
Where do I get a SwitchTRACK code?
-
CES Credit Union will provide you with a SwitchTRACK code form when you are enrolled in the service center. You can also get your SwitchTRACK code over the phone from a Member Service Representative or lender at CES if you were enrolled over the phone.
How do I know if my payment or deposit has been switched?
-
The easiest way is to check the status of a switch is to look at the "Status" column of your ClickSWITCH account. Switches that have been completed and confirmed by your biller or depositor will display a "Completed" status. Switches that are still in process will display a "Mailed" status.
What if I forget to include an automatic payment or direct deposit when submitting my switches?
-
You can easily submit additional switches any time! Simply log in to your ClickSWITCH account and click the correct tab in your Dashboard.
What if my switch isn’t completed and I miss a payment?
-
Monitoring your switch status is an important part of moving your account. It is advisable to keep enough money in your old account to cover each payment until the switch status for that payment has changed to “Completed,” or you’ve confirmed with your billers that your payment account information is updated in their systems.
When is it safe to move/remove funds from my prior account?
-
We recommend keeping enough money in your old account to cover each payment until the switch status is “Completed.” This is especially important for any payments that might be due during the 14 days after you initiate a switch.
Can I use ClickSWITCH to switch my bill payments?
-
Since bill payments are not automatically recurring, you’re not able to use ClickSWITCH for them. You will see a list of your bill payments in the automatic payment tab when you’re logged in to Switch Assist and can download this list to use as reference when creating bill payments at your new financial institution.
How long does this take?
-
Typically, each switch only takes 90 seconds to enter the information. Most regional and national companies are already in our database, so they are easy to find. Once the company receives the form we generate, automatic payment and direct deposit switches typically take 5-15 days to complete.
What if I don't have the information required to submit a switch?
-
If a data field has a red line on the right, that information is required in order for the switch to be submitted. If you are in the middle of a switch, you can "Save" it. It will save as an "Information Needed" status and you can either log back in later when you have the information, or contact CES for more assistance.
