ATM Tips

 

 

As with all financial transactions, please exercise discretion when using an ATM.  For your own safety, be careful.  The following suggestions may be helpful:

bulletMark each transaction in your account record, but not while at the ATM.   Always save your receipts.  Don't leave them at the ATM because they may contain important account information.
bulletCompare your records with the account statements you receive.
bulletDon't lend your ATM or Check Card to anyone.
bulletRemember, do not leave your card at the ATM.
bulletProtect the secrecy of your Personal Identification Number.
bulletPrevent others from seeing you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their view.
bulletIf you lose your ATM or Check Card or if it is stolen, promptly notify us.  You should consult the other disclosures you have received about electronic funds transfers for additional information about what to do if your card is lost or stolen.
bulletWhen you make an ATM transaction, be mindful of your surroundings.   Look out for suspicious activity near the ATM facility.  At night, be sure the ATM site (including the parking area and walkways) is well lighted.  It may be safer to bring someone with you when you make a transaction.  If you observe any problem, go to another ATM facility.
bulletDon't accept assistance from anyone you don't know when using an ATM.
bulletIf you notice anything suspicious or any other problem arises after you have begun an ATM transaction, cancel the transaction, pocket your card and leave.
bulletWait until you are at home or in other secure surroundings to count your cash.
bulletAt a drive-up ATM, make sure all the car doors are locked and all of the windows except the driver's window are rolled up.  Keep the engine running and remain alert to your surroundings.  Report suspicious activity to the police.
