Reminder to Monitor ABLE Account Statements

This is a reminder for everyone who has an ABLE account that it is important to review the account regularly, and this includes the debit card statement. It is prudent to monitor the ABLE account statements in the same way that a credit card or debit card from any other type of bank should be monitored. If you notice any unknown expenditure on an ABLE account, please contact the Fifth Third Bank to report the concern.


It has come to our attention that a small number of ABLE account holders experienced a problem a few weeks ago because of unauthorized charges for Crunchyroll.com. A team at the Fifth Third Bank implemented a systematic block on Thursday, June 29th to prevent these charges from going through in the future.


It should be noted that NJ ABLE account holders are not responsible for unauthorized charges. To report any unauthorized charge, ABLE account holders or caregivers should contact Fifth Third Bank at 1-888-516-2375, Monday thru Friday from 7 am to 8 pm, and on Saturday between 8:30 am and 5 pm.
