For a Bank deposit account, what is the “Current Balance”?
The “Current Balance” is the amount of your current balance that is accessible to you right now. The current balance includes your current ledger balance less items presented today for payment, automatic payments scheduled today, funds transferred, bills paid, or any holds placed on funds during the current business day; plus direct deposits scheduled to post today and available credit on your Safety Net Loan account. Current business day ATM activity is not reflected in this balance.

For a Bank loan, what is the “Current Balance”?
The “Current Balance” is the amount you still owe on the loan. Your actual payoff amount may differ from the Net Payoff shown because interest is applied daily to your account.
If you need the payoff amount of your loan, please Contact Us.

What is the Transaction function?
A Transaction history allows you to review transactions posted to your checking, savings, and loan accounts. You can review all transactions posted to your deposit accounts since your last statement or up to one month prior to your last statement. It includes transactions performed since the end of the Bank’s last business day. You can review all transactions posted to your loan account for the life of the loan. Simply select the time period to review transactions on the Transaction function selection page.

What details will I find in Transaction function? Whom can I call if I have a question?
When you select a Transaction function, you can review details about each transaction for that account. Details include the date, amount and description of the transaction and the balance in your account after the transaction was posted.
If you have any questions, please Contact Us.

Can I stop or modify my request to transfer funds?
Yes. At any time before you reach the “Transfer Funds Confirmation” screen you can modify or cancel your funds transfer request. However, after you complete a funds transfer transaction and receive a confirmation number, you cannot stop the transfer from occurring. At that point, if you change your mind about the transfer, simply make a new transfer to move the funds back to the appropriate accounts.

When are transfers posted to my account?
Transfers are posted to your account immediately and are reflected in your Account Balances.

Can I place a stop payment order on a check I’ve issued?

Security Questions
Is my online communication with the Bank secure?
Yes. Security is one of the most important issues we faced in making this Service available to our customers. We have taken strong measures to ensure that your information remains confidential.
The first step is the use of a secure browser. Certain browsers and computers have the ability to communicate securely by scrambling information as it passes across the Internet. The method of communication is called SSL or Secure Socket Layer. We require the use of a secure browser before a connection can be made to the transaction system.
After you reach us using the secure browser, we take steps to make sure your information remains secure and confidential. Your information passes through a “firewall,” which is a computer specifically designed to keep out unauthorized users. The information is scrambled again to ensure it can only be read by authorized Bank representatives. For more information, please read our Privacy Statement.

How do I access my account information online?
For security purposes, NetBanc24 requires you to enter two sets of numbers: your Access ID and PASSWORD.
back to top
Who can access my account information over the Internet?
As a customer, you must enter your Access ID and PASSWORD that should be known only to you. Unless you have compromised your PASSWORD by revealing it to someone else, you are the only one who can access your account information using NetBanc24.

When I attempt to sign on to NetBanc24, I receive an error message informing me that my Access ID is incorrect. What should I do?
You could have inadvertently entered the Access ID incorrectly. Check your Access ID and try again. If you are certain you entered the correct Access ID, Contact Us.

When I attempt to sign on to NetBanc24, I receive an error message informing me that my ACCESS ID or PASSWORD is incorrect. What should I do?
The ACCESS ID and PASSWORDS are case sensitive. Make sure that you are typing your access ID and password as you did when it was created, making sure to include any lower case or upper case letters. Make sure you are using the correct ACCESS ID and PASSWORD and try again. If you can’t remember your ACCESS ID and PASSWORD and want to use NetBanc24, please Contact Us.

Why is it important to select “Exit” when I finish using NetBanc24 or when I walk away from my computer?
Once you have logged on to NetBanc24, you have begun an “active session.” If you walk away during the course of an active session, someone else can use your computer to perform transactions involving your accounts. It is similar to walking away from an ATM while your card is still in the machine.
For your security, your NetBanc24 will automatically end your active session if there is no activity on your computer for about 10 minutes. However, to eliminate any exposure, it is always better for you to end the active session by selecting “Exit.”

Browser Questions
Which browsers can I use to access NetBanc24?
Any browser, including versions of America Online 4.0 or higher (for Windows 95), Netscape Navigator 4.0 or higher, Internet Explorer 4.x or higher with 128-bit encryption will allow you to access the NetBanc24 site.

I want to be able to easily return to the Bank’s web site. How do I add this site to my “bookmarks”?
Adding the Bank site to your bookmark list is easy.
In Netscape, click on the menu item “Bookmarks” and then choose the option “Add Bookmark.” No confirmation is necessary. The Bank page should now appear in your Bookmarks list.
In Internet Explorer, the process is similar to Netscape. Click on the menu item “Favorites.” Choose the option “Add to Favorites” and then click “OK” in the confirmation box. The Bank page should now appear in your list of Favorites.
Most versions of America Online support the “Favorite Places” option. While you are on the page you wish to bookmark, look for a red heart icon in the top right area of the title bar of the AOL browser. Click on the red heart icon. You can confirm that the site was added to your list of Favorite Places by clicking on the red heart icon on the AOL toolbar at the top. The Bank site should be listed as a Favorite Places option.

When do I use the “Reload” or “Refresh” buttons?
Because the Internet is vast, your connection might actually be passing through a number of points before reaching us. Occasionally, your connection could be slowed. Clicking “Reload” or “Refresh” will open a new connection which could improve your speed.
You can also use the “Reload” or “Refresh” button if you believe the page you are requesting is incomplete.
back to top
When do I use the “Back” and “Forward” buttons?
The “Back” and “Forward” buttons found on most browsers are a quick and easy way to revisit pages you have already viewed during your current Internet session. Your browser “remembers” where you have been during your current session and tries to keep that information ready to access again.
Selecting “Back” allows you to go back one page at a time to view the pages you have already seen during your current session. Once you have moved back in your current session, selecting “Forward” allows you to advance ahead one page at a time to the page you were viewing when you started to go back.
