A: In today's online environment, login ID/password access to your financial
information is no longer considered sufficient to securely verify your
identity. Therefore, in addition to your login ID and password, our online
verification requires us to deliver you a one-time piece of required
information via something only you possess (for example, your email account
or your telephone). Once you receive the additional piece of information (a
secure access code) and enter it into our system, we will remember your
computer and browser and mark your browser with a cookie and/or other
browser-specific object.
Registering your computer adds a strong layer of security to your online
accounts. This means that no other unregistered computer in the world has
access to your online information, even if your login ID and password were
accidentally or unintentionally compromised. Once we register your computer
and browser, you will only be required to enter your login ID and password on
future logins via the registered computer browser.
A: There are several reasons this may happen, including:
- Your browser settings are set to delete cookies, or your
browser cookie for online banking has been deleted since the last time
you logged in.
- Your online profile is set to require a secure access code
delivery each time you log in.
- You are logging in via a different browser on the same
registered computer. Each browser (i.e. Internet
Explorer/Firefox/Safari) must be individually registered.
- We have reset all active registrations on the system for
security purposes.
A: For your security, we have set a limit to the number of allowed
registrations for each login ID. As you may have reached the limit, please
contact us for assistance.
A: You can remove the registration of a computer/browser by deleting your
cookies, or only the cookie related to our online site. Please see your
browser help for assistance in deleting cookies.
A: The phishing phrase is based on another cookie set in your browser when
you established your phrase. You will see your phrase on all browsers through
which you submit a phrase. If you do not see your established phrase, it may
be due to several reasons:
- If you have not submitted a phrase through the browser you
are using (but you had previously set up a phrase on a different
browser) that is likely the reason you are not seeing your phrase. When
you submit your phishing phrase, it is effective on the individual
browser used on the computer from which you established the phrase.
However, as you submit a new phrase on another (second)
computer/browser, the newly submitted phrase will be shared on all
previously used browsers. In other words, you can set phishing phrases
on several browsers but you can only have one phrase associated with
your login ID, which is the most recent phrase you submitted.
- It is also possible that you are not seeing the phishing
phrase because the site you are on is not our secure online banking
site. That is, in fact, the reason we have a phishing phrase, so you can
be aware of attempts by malicious individuals to lead you to an
unauthorized version of our site, referred to as "phishing".
The absence of your phishing phrase may be the only way to tell the
difference between our site and an unauthorized version of our site. If
you are certain the absence of your phishing phrase is not due to the
cookie explanation given above, please contact us immediately, BEFORE
you login.
Make sure the web address for the site is
the same as, or linked directly from, our main website.
