FAQs

 

Q. My account balance is showing only asterisks or it says “Host Not Found”. Is there something wrong with my account?
A. eBranch undergoes system maintenance and updates to ensure the site is always safe and secure. If you log on during maintenance times, you may see a message that says ‘host not found’ or asterisks in your account balance. If you have received this message, you may try logging in again later, or if you are concerned about the status of your account, please contact Member Service at (775) 882-2060, or (800) 421-6674.
 
Q. I was using the system and it prompted me to log on again. I had already provided my Logon ID and Password once before, so why did it ask again?
A. This is a security feature designed for your protection. If 10 minutes elapse without a request from you or anything from the eBranch system (exclusive of Help), then the system ends your session and does not allow further transactions until you enter your user information again. This approach helps prevent others from performing transactions on your computer in the event that you forget to properly exit the system.
 
Q. I keep getting messages about receiving a “cookie.” What is a cookie and how do I disable the warning message?
A. Cookies are small pieces of information, sent from the server, to be stored in a file on your computer. Cookies can be used for many purposes, but at eBranch, a cookie is used to store security information needed to maintain a secure, confidential connection to our Internet server.
 
Q. Can I use the “Back” feature of the browser to go to a page that I have already been on, or do I need to use the menus to get there? Will it work the same or cause a problem?
A. Yes, you can use the Back button on your browser to return to prior pages without causing a problem. However, for security reasons, sometimes pages automatically expire so that you cannot return to them. If you encounter this, simply use the menus to go to the location you wish.
 
Q. If I change my password in eBranch, will it affect my P.I.N. number for the Phone Activated Teller?
A. No. If you change your password in eBranch, the personal identification number you use to reach P.A.T., our Phone Activated Teller, will not change.
 
Q. I tried to make a transfer from my Savings account and it wouldn’t work. Why?
A. You may have exceeded the maximum number of transfers allowed per month. According to Federal Regulation D, you may make no more than six transfers or withdrawals per month to from a savings account to another credit union account of yours or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer or telephonic order or instruction. If you have not exceeded the maximum number of six transfers, and your transfer still did not work, please contact Member Service. Transfers are not limited by Regulation D for share draft (checking) accounts.
 
Q. Can I transfer funds to other Members?
A.

Yes, you may transfer funds to other members, as long as you know the other member’s account number, type, and sub-type:

  • Account type abbreviations

  • a. CK =Checking
    b. SA =Savings
    c. LO =Loan
  • Account sub types

  • a. Primary =1
    b. Secondary =2

For example, if you are transferring to another member’s secondary checking account, you would type 123456=CK=2. Please note that the “account type” dropdown menu is a memo field only and will not determine which account you transfer to. However it is suggested you choose the correct account type for your own reference.

 
Q. When I log into eBranch, I am able to see my Overview Screen with Account Balances, but when I navigate to other tabs I see only a blank screen.
A.

If your computer is running Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10, this may be a browser compatibility issue. Try the following:

  • If there are no menus visible in your browser, right click the area at the top of the browser
    - From the dropdown menu, choose “Menu Bar”
  • Now that your menus are visible, click the “Tools” menu
  • From the dropdown, select Compatibility View settings
  • The website you are currently at will appear in the text box below the words “Add this website”
  • Click “Add”
  • The website will now appear in the “Websites you’ve added to Compatibility View” window
  • Click Close

If this does not solve your problem, please contact Member Service.
