On your next log in after Extended PAC is implemented (February 26th 2019)

Does the delegate have to wait for the authorized signor to change/update their PAC?

Yes. Delegates will need to be reactiviated by the signor once they have updated their PAC.

Can a delegate login to Online Banking Small Business prior to the signer re-activating them?

Will consolidated accounts display once the new Enhanced PAC is created?

No.  A new strong PAC is required for both Personal and Business.  Signers will need to ensure this has been completed on both Business and Personal profiles before consolidated accounts can be viewed.

Lock Outs

Why am I locked out of Mobile App after updating my PAC to a strong PAC via desktop?

You likely have Quickview enabled on the mobile app. This feature stores the PAC on the backend of all devices the member has ever had, allowing the app to retrieve balances and display them without the user having to login.

Each time the app is opened and balances displayed, it’s logging in with the previously stored PAC, which is now incorrect. This will eventually lock the user out. To correct, you need to login to online banking on desktop, navigate to Account Services > Mobile Banking App and remove all registered devices. SCCU staff will need to reset you, please call the MSC, live chat online, or stop in to a branch.

Do I have to answer a security question every time I log on?

You will only have to answer a security question if you are signing in from a computer that you have not registered as a "trusted" computer. If you have registered your computer as trusted, you will not be asked a security question. Registering your computer will place a permanent cookie on your computer for identification purposes. Every time you clear your cookies, you will have to repeat the registration process. Note: You should only register a computer if you are the owner or its sole user. We recommend that you do not register computers that are shared, such as those found in libraries or shared work computers.

Can I change my security questions?

Yes, when you are logged into online banking, you will find a menu on the left hand side of the screen where you can go to change any or all of your choices.
