Mobile Banking & TEXT Messaging FAQs
- How do I know if my cell phone or PDA is "web-enabled"?
If you have a "minibrowser," "microbrowser," or "wireless web" on your device's main menu, and that feature has been activated, then it is web-enabled. If you don't find this option, you should contact your wireless carrier to have web-enabled service added to your device -- often at an additional cost.
- What limitations does mobile banking have?
Unlike computer access at www.MFFCU.org, mobile banking cannot view check images, prior statements, or direct deposit and tax information. It also cannot issue a check to yourself, reorder checks, or place stop payments.
YES! MobileBanking is brought to you in partnership with MShift, Inc (www.mshift.com), and allows access to your MFFCU account from any web-enabled mobile phone, Palm Handheld, Pocket PC Device, or RIM Blackberry Pager. MobileBanking requires the same secure login information that is used to login to your CU Online Banking. PIN numbers are never stored at any stage. Your data is encrypted using the Wireless Transport Layer Security (WTLS) protocol, which provides the highest level of security available today. Additionally, all data that passes between the wireless gateway, MShift’s servers, and MFFCU's web servers is encrypted using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) layer. MobileBanking has a built-in Session Time-Out after 5 minutes of user inactivity. This prevents someone from picking up an MFFCU's member’s wireless device and accessing their accounts if they forget to logout from their previous session.
- Can I set up my MFFCU On-Line access and high-security login or Billpay with a wireless device?
Sorry. Both of these steps must first be done at CU On-Line Banking with a computer before using mobile banking.
- Can I register my mobile device to access my MFFCU accounts?
Yes, you can also register your mobile device. Registering your device is as simple as installing a digital certificate issued by MFFCU. After you have signed on for the first time, you will be asked to register this device. Doing this will avoid the hassle of having to answer the second security question each time you log in.
- Is there a cost for mobile banking?
Not from MFFCU. Depending on the terms of your contract, your wireless carrier may charge you for using web-enabled features on your device.
- What happens if I get locked out of MFFCU.mobi?
For your security, your account is locked if your login or answers to security questions are entered incorrectly too many times in a row. Should that happen, please contact MFFCU at one of these numbers for a remedy:
- I can't figure out how to access the internet with my phone. Can MFFCU help me?
We can try! However, with so many different types of phones that support internet access, it's really hard for us to be able to walk you through the details. Your best option for help would be to consult the manual that came with your phone, or contact your wireless service provider for assistance.
