Online banking customers of Royal Bank of Scotland and
NatWest can receive their statements electronically rather than on
paper, after the banks launched e-statement services.
Customers can opt out of receiving paper based statements and
receive them electronically through online banking.
David Gillespie, director of retail markets at NatWest, said,
"The introduction of paperless statements means customers can keep
tabs on their expenditure and their account balance with the
minimum effort, as well as
cutting down on the amount of paper they receive through the
post."
"The bank is also introducing an instant access service to make
it easier for customers
to bank online.
