Tuesday January 19, 12:36 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Net.B@nk, Inc. Net.B@nk Launches New Banking Platform to Accommodate Growth and Better Serve Customers ATLANTA, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Net.B@nk™, Member FDIC (Nasdaq: NTBK - news; www.netbank.com), the largest FDIC-insured bank operating solely on the Internet, announced today that it has upgraded its banking technology platform to better accommodate future growth and offer customers a wider range of new and improved services. ''As Net.B@nk continues to grow, we continue to improve and upgrade the bank's service and delivery systems to better serve our existing customers and accommodate new ones,'' said D.R. Grimes, CEO of Net.B@nk. ''We believe it is imperative to provide the best systems architecture possible to maintain our status as a leading provider of consumer banking services on the Internet. Our technology partnerships with industry leaders like NCR, Edify and BISYS play a key role in helping us achieve this goal.'' In addition to providing an updated look for the bank, the new platform is easier to navigate and enables customers to request information and materials on-line. Account information provided to customers through Net.B@nk's new platform is provided real-time, a feature not often found in Internet banking today. Other new features include formatted order screens that enable customers to order checks, deposit slips, envelopes and copies of cancelled checks. Online bill payment features have also been updated to display payment history and provide customers better status information on payments. For customers looking to consolidate their personal finance statements, Net.B@nk's new platform includes a Quicken™ Import Format (QIF), which allows customers to download their banking records into files for use with Quicken™ and Microsoft Money™. The new platform also offers customers hyperlinks to their accounts using a more traditional Windows™ web interface. For customers with multiple accounts, they can now assign nicknames to the accounts, making it easier to distinguish among accounts than with account numbers.
