Here are some tips and general good practices for banking on your mobile device:
Fraud detection is incorporated in the app. If fraud or abnormal activity is detected you will be required to answer questions from public databases and/or receive a secure code to the phone number associated with your online banking to proceed. This is known as Out of Band authentication. Additionally, for added protection, there may be cases where Mobile Banking will request you answer a security question again even though you selected to remember this device. This is for added protection in the case where other security policies trigger the system to request you answer the questions again. If you need assistance please contact our Customer Care Department at 888-307-5887.
If you get a new device, for security purposes first delete the app from your old device then simply download the bankhometown Mobile app on your new device.
