FAQ
Online and Mobile Banking Security
Why is this extra level of security needed?
In today's world there is no such thing as too much security when it comes to your online and mobile activity, especially when it comes to your financial information. This added step of having a code texted to you when you access your accounts provides that extra layer of protection to discourage hackers and others who may try to access your information. It's an easy step that you may already be doing with other online and mobile sites and applications.
Does this affect my current password or security questions?
No, not at all. This is just a quick additional step to verify your identity when you access your accounts online or via mobile app.
How do I know if someone has accessed my account without permission?
The best thing you can do is watch your account(s). Look for transactions you didn't authorize or odd transfers/bills paid. To a degree, we watch for certain patterns on accounts too and may contact you if we notice any abnormal activity or an attempted change in your login information. If you suspect any unauthorized activity on any of your accounts, please notify us immediately by contacting your local branch office or calling customer service at 800-686-2052.
What should I do if I think my identity has been stolen?
We recommend consulting the FTC's Identity Theft guide. You'll find the link under Resources in the About navigation tab above.
