Statements
Yes, up to seven years of HarborOne eStatements will be available after your accounts are converted to Eastern Bank. Feel free to print, download, or save your HarborOne eStatements before Friday, February 20.

Bill Payment
We will convert your bill pay payees, scheduled payments, and up to six months of payment history.
Take special note of any payments you have scheduled for delivery between February 20 – 26. Once you transition to Eastern Mobile & Online Banking® you will not be able to see these pending payments, but they will still be processed.
As of 10 AM on Friday, February 20, access to HarborOne Bank Bill Pay will be unavailable and will remain unavailable to schedule or modify payments. Please review any payees, scheduled, or recurring payments, as you will be unable to schedule or modify payments after 10 AM on February 20.
Bill pay expedited payments are not available in Eastern Mobile & Online Banking® bill pay.
Starting Monday February 23, payments will be withdrawn from your designated account on the date you schedule to send them, rather than on the date they are delivered to the payee.
What’s changing:
- “Deliver By” to “Send On”: When you schedule an electronic or check bill payment, you’ll now see a “Send On” date. This is the day you submit your payment in Bill Pay.
- For electronic and check payments, your account will be debited on the “Send On” date. Please make sure the funds are available in your account on the Send On date, or the payment will not be released.
- Example: If you schedule a payment whether it is made electronically or by check with a “Send On” date of March 3, your account will be debited on March 3.
- You will also notice the checks received by the payee are made on your behalf by the Bank's Bill Pay provider. Checks will not have your account number on them.
Up to six months of bill pay history will transfer, however, it will take a few days to load into Eastern’s system; you should be able to view after February 27.
If you cannot unfreeze your bill pay profile/account at HarborOne Bank, it will not transfer over, and you will need to enroll in bill pay and load payees. To unfreeze your bill pay profile/account, we recommend contacting Fiserv BillPay’s collection line at 800-848-1337 about 7-14 days prior to Thursday, February 19 to allow time to unfreeze your account. If Fiserv can unfreeze by this date, the account may be reactivated and able to transfer to Eastern.
Take special note of any payments you have scheduled for delivery between February 20 – 26. Once you transition to Eastern Mobile and Online Banking®, you will not be able to see these pending payments, but they will still be processed.
