  10. New “Update Payment” feature for banking changes has launched! Great news! Equitable® has launched a new self-serve "Update Payment" feature in Client Access and on EquiNet®. This new online process enables clients and advisors to easily submit key banking change requests for eligible insurance policies*, with no need to complete a physical form.

    What’s new?

    A new "Update Payment" feature is now available on Client Access and on EquiNet under Policy Inquiry. It allows clients (and advisors) to easily submit requests for the following three transactions online:

    1.  STOP pre-authorized payments.

    2.  RESUME pre-authorized payments on overdue accounts.

    3.  CHANGE which bank we withdraw money from.




    The new "Update Payment" feature replaces the previous "Edit" button in Client Access. The old banking change options are still available in the client’s Profile section. They can be used to request a change to the payment withdrawal date, as that option is not yet available with the new Update Payment feature. 

    How it works!

    When a change is requested using the new Update Payment feature, our Operations team receives it online.  They will review and process the changes within three business days, as per Equitable’s current service standards. 

    The Update Payment feature in Client Access is a self-serve process. However, if a client prefers, their advisor or an Equitable Customer Service associate can assist them by submitting the request on their behalf. Clients will be asked to sign to approve any such requests that are submitted by someone other than the owner of the policy.

    *The Update Payment transactions are only available for eligible policies: those that have not lapsed, are not on Automatic Premium Loan, and are not owned by a corporation or other entity.

    We trust that these digital enhancements will help make the client and advisor experience even simpler and more efficient.
