Switch Kit
Welcome to Northwest Bank!
Now that you have decided to make a change, we are
prepared to help you through the process.
The Northwest Bank Switch Kit provides you step by step
instructions for making the change, and provides you all
of the necessary tools to convert your direct deposit
and automated monthly deductions to your new account.
This convenient Switch Kit is accessible at your desktop
so you can take care of the details at a time and place
that works for you. This is the first of many times
you'll experience our efforts to Bring the Bank to You!
Here is how it works:
Complete an Account Application and call us at (503)
906-3939 for an appointment. It is important that we
have an opportunity to meet you in person and also we
must physically verify your identification.
Once you have opened your new account, if you have or
would like any of the following convenient services
established on your Northwest Bank Account, fill out the
appropriate form(s) provided to convert/add these
services to your new account.
- Direct Deposits including any payroll, automated payments, or dividend deposits.
- Automatic Payments or Withdrawals including recurring bills, club membership dues, charitable contributions, recurring debit card charges, or prescheduled transfers.
- Online bill payments print your existing payee screens to use as a reference when setting up your Northwest Bank bill pay service. You will need the payee name, address, phone number, and account number for each of the bills you wish to pay online.
To close your account at your former bank, make
sure all of your outstanding checks have cleared
your account and you have successfully converted all
of your automated direct deposits, automatic
payments and withdrawals, and online bill payments.
Then, complete the Account Closure Request Form and
mail it to your former bank.
Now, begin enjoying the best banking experience in
the Northwest! Thank you for your business! And
again, welcome!
