Faster online banking
2 August 2008
Learning how to use online banking faster is good for saving you time as well as making your online banking more secure. There are many easy steps you can take to faster online banking, but a few basic ones are all it can take to save you a lot of time.
Memorise your username or user number, as well as your password
By memorising your access details you can save time accessing your online banking tools. Also, this lowers the possibility of people being able to find out your password, as it will not need to be recorded anywhere.
Set up regular scans of your system
If you set up regular anti-virus and anti-spyware scans of the system you use for online banking, you may save time as you will not really need to do a scan right before you do your online banking. Safe Internet banking relies on your system being safe, so setting up daily scans and using a firewall should help keep your system clear of threats.
Bookmark your online banking sites
Bookmarking your online banking sites should save you a small amount of time as well as helping to avoid phishing scams as you will not be vulnerable from phishing attempts due to mistyped addresses.
Set up automatic transfers
For online bill payments of regular amounts, automatic transfers can be a great way to save time. Rather than having to remember to transfer money every month you can set your online banking to do it automatically.
