If you suspect
someone has logged into your account or transferred funds, you need to contact
us as soon possible. At that time we can turn on-line access off or help you
change access codes.
Q.
When I log-in to Home @ccess, why
are unsuccessful log-in attempts reported at times I wasn't even using Home
@ccess?
A. When
you use Mainline, these calls will also appear on Home @ccess as "log-in
attempts." If the last time you accessed your account was through Mainline
and you accidentally entered the wrong code or typed in your account number
wrong, it will show up on Home @ccess. This is also true if someone else typed
in their account number incorrectly and it happened to be yours. Their
log-in attempt would fail because they would have the wrong access code.
Q. Can I pay bills
on-line?
A. Yes. Online bill pay is available. Click here to preview.
Q. Can I print
the information?
A. Yes,
just click on the "Print" button on your browser.
Q. Why is there
a difference between my checking balance and my available balance?
A. The balances
differ because a temporary hold may have been placed on the funds in
your account. In most cases the temporary hold has been placed on debit card
transactions which have been authorized but not posted, or on deposits which
have been made through an ATM. When checks clear your account, the system
will look at your available balance to determine if the check will be paid.
If you make a deposit
through an ATM, you have immediate access to the first $100. The rest of the
deposit will become available in 2 business days. The two day hold is for
verification purposes.
