Keeping your account secure

Online banking is convenient and secure when you follow a few simple precautions. To help protect your account and personal information:

  • Use a strong password
  • Never share your password or one-time password (OTP)
  • Avoid using public or shared computers
  • Log out after each banking session
  • Keep your contact details up to date

Remember that the bank will never ask for your password or OTP through email, SMS or phone calls.


Stay alert to scams

Fraudsters sometimes pretend to represent trusted organisations to try to obtain your personal or banking information. Be cautious if you receive messages or phone calls asking you to:

  • Share your password or OTP
  • Click on unfamiliar links
  • Transfer money urgently
  • Provide personal or banking information

If something does not seem right, do not respond immediately. Take a moment to verify the request through the bank’s official channels.

  • Review the transaction details carefully
  • Contact the bank as soon as possible
  • Follow any instructions provided to help secure your account

Acting quickly can help protect your account and reduce potential risks.


Banking with confidence

Personal Internet Banking provides a simple and convenient way to manage your account and access everyday banking services.

Your OTP is for your eyes only

A One-Time Password (OTP) is an extra layer of security that helps protect your account. Never share your OTP with anyone, even if they claim to be from the bank. If someone asks for your OTP, it could be a sign of fraud.
