Customer Awareness and Education for E-Banking
In an effort to provide customers awareness and education regarding online banking, we would like to offer some general information about your online banking account as well as how to protect your electronic banking account(s) and bank account(s).
Accessing E-Banking AccountsPCB Bank offers a variety of e-banking products. Each e-banking product requires a password. Your password is generally used as a confirmation of your identity when accessing an e-banking product. You are responsible for the security of your password. You should keep your password confidential to reduce the chance of your account(s) from being compromised.
General Password Guidelines- Must be 6 to 32 characters long.
- Always use a strong complex password by including a combination of letters, numbers and special characters (i.e @*!+).
- Do not use your login ID, personal number such as SSN, or letters and numbers in ascending/descending order.
- Never share passwords with anyone. PCB Bank will never contact you on an unsolicited basis to ask for your e-banking credentials.
- Change passwords immediately if you suspect or if they may have been compromised.
- Use different passwords for different accounts. Limit password reuse
