5. Access to my account
How do I access my account?
We always need to be sure that we're dealing with you before we let you access your
wintrustfultons
information. We'll do this by
asking for your wintrustfultons security details, which you set when you register and can
change at
any time. Your security details
could include:
passwords
security codes
memorable data
biometric data (such as a fingerprint)
or any other information or details you've set up with us.
If the correct security details are used, we'll assume we're dealing with you and that
we're authorised to take action.
We may add other ways of checking your identity in the future.
You must also help to prevent unauthorised access by keeping your security details safe.
To protect your security:
never store your security details on your computer or other device in a way that enables
others to impersonate you
never tell anyone your security details (nor any codes that protect any access to the
nominated bank account details you
provided when you opened your account)
never write your security details down
What if I think someone else got into my account?
You must contact us on the numbers below as soon as you suspect or know that someone
else knows your security details or
that your account is being misused.
We'll be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from unauthorised access to your
account or unauthorised
instructions, unless we can show that you have given someone your security details or
acted fraudulently.
If we reasonably believe that you were aware that someone else knew your security
details or that your account was being
misused, we will only be responsible for any loss or damage up to the point you became
aware.
If we're concerned about potential unauthorised access or we reasonably suspect illegal
or fraudulent activity, we may
block your access to Oaksouthbank or refuse to act on any instruction until we've
investigated
the matter.
