    Why do I need to provide my login for my other bank’s online banking?

    We link accounts for external ACH transfers utilizing Plaid. Plaid communicates with us in real time to verify the account and that the account ownership matches the information used to open your account at Neighbors Bank. If you are unable to connect with your other bank through Plaid, please contact us and we will provide access to microdeposits for verification.

    What are microdeposits and how do I verify them?

    Microdeposits are two small (less than $1 each) deposits sent to your funding bank account to verify ownership of the account.

    When we issue these microdeposits to your account, we issue two small withdrawals and to offset those withdrawals we issue two small deposits simultaneously. You'll see these deposits/debits in your bank account within 1-3 business days as separate items on your bank statement. An email will automatically be sent to you asking you to verify the microdeposits.

    If you’re not seeing the amounts after 3 business days, it’s possible the bank account information may have been entered incorrectly. Please contact Customer Service at 1-833-514-4190.

    How do I speak to someone about my account?

    With Neighbors Bank, you can call us M-F 7:00 AM -7:00 PM CT and Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM CT 1-833-514-4190, or use our secure message portal in your Online Banking.

    How do I sign up for Online Banking?

    Shortly after your account application has been accepted you should receive an email (check your Junk folder if you do not see it at first). It will direct you to our website or mobile app. You will need to click on "Not enrolled? Sign up now" to set up your new account. You will need to fill out all information on this screen. You can locate your account number in the secure email you received when the account was approved. If you have not conducted any transactions yet, you can input zeros in the "Amount of a recent transaction" field. Once you hit submit, it will be forwarded to our banking team for approval and you will receive an email as soon as it has been approved.
