What happens if I don’t upgrade my account?
On October 1, 2020, any existing TruWest® checking accounts (including OTG, Choice, Advantage 55 and Traditional Checking) that are not upgraded to rewards checking accounts will be automatically converted to Simply Checking.
Because Simply Checking does not offer the same great benefits as our High Yield and Cash Back checking accounts, we encourage you to make a rewards checking selection before automatic conversion occurs.
Select your upgrade one of two ways:
- BY PHONE
Call us at 1 (855) 878-9378, and ask us to upgrade your account for you.
- ONLINE
- Click below to log into your TruWest account
- From the top menu, select Online Request Forms > Rewards Checking Election Form
If you have more than one checking account, your additional checking accounts will be converted to Simply Checking at a future date. Visit truwest.org/simply for account details.
