Switch Kit

Experience the Alliance Bank Difference...

• Get started online with an Alliance Bank Checking Account. The simple online starting process should take approximately 5 minutes to complete.

• Automatic Payments/Transfers Checklist – Create an inventory of the bill payments and transfers you'll need to switch to Alliance Bank. Think about which payment method works best and whether you wish to make any changes.
• Plan for Outstanding Expenses – Make sure you leave enough funds in your old account to cover outstanding expenses. Determine how much you will need to leave in your old account until outstanding expenses clear - don't close your old account immediately.

• Direct Deposit Authorization Form – Complete a direct deposit authorization form for each source making a direct deposit to your account. For your payroll direct deposit, check with your employer's Human Resources department to see if they have their own direct deposit form. If they do, please use it. Otherwise, request a switch kit which contains a direct deposit authorization form you can complete and give it to your employer. Deposits typically take effect within three deposit periods.
• If you have Social Security or other governmental direct deposit, please go to any Alliance Bank office, and they can help you with that.

• Automatic Payment Switch Form - This form will notify third parties (like your cell phone provider or electric company) that you wish to have your automatic payment transactions redirected to debit your new Alliance Bank account.
• Take care of your Bill Pay - This is a manual process but we'll do our best to make it simple. You'll be happy you did!

• Once you're sure all outstanding transactions made against your old account have cleared, you will want to let your old bank know you're closing your account. Be sure to destroy any checks or debit cards associated with your old account.
