Secured online banking and bill payment

There was a tip on another post about how to bypass the automatic re-routing of the Bank of America main web page to the mobile page when accessing it using iPhone. I used that tip (went to the sign on page, not the main page) and successfully logged on to my BOA online banking web site. Everything looked the same as if I was using my pc with the Internet Explorer. I even looked at my PDF bank statement. So far no complain about accessing this BOA online banking site. However, I am not sure about paying bills online using the online bill payment function with my iPhone. I do not know if iPhone can handle it. I don't want things to get mess up. We are talking about real dollar here. Has anyone done it successfully? Again, I am not talking about using the BOA mobile online access, I am talking about the regular web page online banking.
Thanks for any comments.

From what I've seen the iPhone does support some browser security, I've accessed my own bank's website to check my balance and noticed the 'https:' as well as a lock in the address bar. So, it should be secure.
Now, as far as your payments going through and being recognized, I think that as long as the various browser requests get forwarded properly and if the pages load properly, you should be all right. If you have two bank accounts try doing some small transfer between the two as a test. I myself don't use my bank's online payment feature, and I personally just feel...odd performing transactions over my iPhone, even checking my balance makes me feel a little weird, but it's so convenient with the iPhone browser.

HT1338 After I installed OS X Mountain Lion system, I can't use my Safari to log into my online banking and some other websites which require passwords. Can some one please help?

After I installed OS X Mountain Lion system, I can't use my Safari to log into my online banking and some other websites which require passwords. Can some one please help?

It could be browser incompatibility or something else. When you say you can't log in, what happens? Is the bank website generating an error saying you're not using a supported browser? Does the login form for your bank account display as usual, but once you submit the form to log in it doesn't work? Give me a specific step-by-step of what you're doing, such as...
1. I load bankofamerica.com
2. I type in my login
3. When I submit, the page does nothing
Obviously that may not be your issue, but giving us details like that will help us come to a quicker conclusion.

Problem with some secure websites - banking and Paypal

As of yesterday when I try Paypal and banking sites (secure sites) with Firefox I get an error "You are using a browser that has not been certified with this online banking product. You can't continue to use this browser. You should use
Internet Explorer (6 or above)." The sites work ok with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. My feeling is that it is some sort of certificate or Javascript problem with Firefox. I've tried deleting the cache and all cookies with no improvement. I then deleted Firefox (I had the latest Version 3.x) and then installed Firefox 4 and am still getting the same result. I have checked the computer with two different virus / malware scanners with no issue. The paypal site view code shows javascript that produces the error response - I'm not quite sure what triggers the code - it seems to look for msie or opera user agents.

All the sites you mention open instantly for me with no error messages.
Something is wrong with your settings. Try this:
The following usually works on both Tiger and Leopard:
(First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl.)
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20070416000657464
Many, including me, have also followed the advice given by others here to add DNS codes to their Network Settings, with good results in terms of speed-up:
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
208.67.222.220
208.67.220.222
Click on Apply Now and close the window.
Restart Safari, and repair permissions.

I can't access the menues of my account of secured online bank website??

I have an account in National Bank of Kuwait.
I am accessing it through website for the bank that serves an online Bank Services.
While accessing my account, there are menus and sub-menus which is the bank different services.
THESE MENUS ARE NOT ACCESSIBLE AND WHEN YOU PUT THE CURSOR OF THE MOUSE ON THE MENU WORD, THE CURSOR IS NOT ACTIVE AS IF THERE IS NOTHING.

There are 3 things you can try:
1. Fully close you mail app. From your home screen, press your home button twice to bring up your most recently used apps (task bar). With your finger, hold it on any of those apps until they all start to jiggle. You'll see a minus sign sign on the upper left side of each app. Touch the on the Mail icon. Touch your home button once more to stop the apps from jiggling and then again to return to your home screen.
2. If that doesn't work, reboot your iPad. Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (hold past the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
3. If that doesn't work, the last resort might be to delete this mailbox from Settings > Mail COntacts Calendars, then re-install the mailbox.
I hope one of these suggestions helps.......

I am trying to setup some online banking and they indicated that I should revert back to an older version of Firefox (v. 3.5). I am running 3.6.3. Two questions: 1. Do you think this would help? 2. How do I revert back to an older verson?

https://www.cardmemberservices.net/welcome.php

Are you sure about that URL? It's pretty strange for a bank to be using a 2010 copyright in the middle of 2011.
On the FirstNational site, they recommend the latest release of Firefox ([http://www.firstnational.com//001/html/en/personal/faqs/tran/system_technical_requirements.html]).
Anyway, due to changes made to your profile when upgrading to version 3.6, there is no quick and easy way to downgrade to 3.5.

Bank transfer/ Bill payment

Hi,
If you pay your bill with the above options do you incur a change?
I want to know of a way to not get charged but not pay by DD
Thanks

To avoid the charge you do need to set up a direct debit.
No direct debit = charge!

Trying to login to my online banking and I'm receiving Cookies are Invalid or Disabled... any ideas?

I've tried clearing them already and it worked temporarly, but now it is giving me the error again

Did you quit Safari completely and then clear Safari and then restart the iPad?
In order to quit Safari completely......
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
Clear Safari ....
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Then go to Settings>Safari>Accept Cookies>From Visited. And then try again.

How come version 3.6.3 will not allow me to access my online banking while version 3.6.2 can when they are both exactly the same setup?

I have two computers. Both had Fire Fox 3.6.2. I then upgraded one to 3.6.3. I then tried to access my online banking and I was unable to with the Version 3.6.3. I then went to my other computer and I had no problems accessing it with the one that has 3.6.2. On the computer with 3.6.2 that was upgraded i did not change anything. It has the same add-on, settings, etc. This happens to some other sites as well. I have read and looked through all the help files and nothing helped. I've done everything except uninstall Fire Fox and reinstall 3.6.2 (if i can find it) to see if that will work. I really don't want to do that but if i must then i shall.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded my fire fox from version 3.6.2

Security Deposit Interest and Withholding tax_ Query

Hi Experts
I have raised a security deposit request and received payment against it. Interest on the cash security deposit was also calculated and it was also posted to contract account subject to Withholding tax assigned to it.
Now, i want to know from which tables will i be able to access the amount of Security deposit paid by the consumer, the amount of interest calculated on that Secuirty deposit and the amount of withholding tax on that interest?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Anwesha.

Hi Anwesha,
There are multiple tables where you can access the data releted to security deposits and the interest calculated against them.
FKK_SEC
FKK_SEC_REQ
Take the document no. from the above tables and go to DFKKOP, you will be able to find the payment amount (if any) against the SD line item in the clearing section.
Table DFKKIAPT will give you the interest information for the security deposit.
Take the interest document no. and go to DFKKOP to find out the With holding tax amount (Field-QBSHB).
Hope it clarifies.
Thanks,
Amlan

10.5.6 Has broke Online Banking Access from Safari

Since I updated my Intel imac with this update I can no longer access my online banking with BB&T, this is a very large Southeast Bank, when I log in, it just brings me to another screen, to log in again, no error message, I called the bank and of coarse they told me it's my fault, I must of forgot my password, anyway I talked to their online tech support, and they did tell me that they are aware that the update for the mac has broken the access to their site with Safari, they said I either had to use Internet Explorer or Mozilla, due to the fact that their site is no longer supported by Safari, due to the latest mac update.
http://www.bbt.com
Note: I also posted this at another site, where others have posted about the same problem with other online banking websites, not just BB&T

I too am a user BB&T online banking and can no longer access the bank after upgrading to 10.5.6. I called the bank this morning and they told me they have been in touch with Apple regarding the problem. I started using Mozilla Firefox and was able to log into online banking. Since I'm a very long time PC owner and recently purchased my first Mac, I'm not impressed with this flop from Apple which I had greater expectations for problem free software. That's why I decided to leave Windows and the PC. Also, I had been a long time user of Mozilla browsers when I had the PC. Safari is starting to look like it's not going to be my browser going forward. What kind of testing is Safari subjected to at Apple? Mozilla has the backing of a large and knowledgeable creative community.

Automatic Payment program for Bank bills and Bill of Exchange.

Helllo Sapients,
I need to configure Automatic Payment Program for Bank bills and Bill of Exchange. This configuration is for Europe, where Bank bills are very common.
Can someone advise me or send me the configuration steps for the same.
Thank you
Naman

Yes, as long you have an open item on the customer account that needs paying.
In F110 you see vendor_and_customer in the parameter screen.

OS X security and online banking

Hello everyone.
I've been using Macs for nearly a year and have never used anti-virus or spyware software. I currently feel secure in this.
There was an article in The Sunday Times this morning about security of online banking.
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0,,2770-2426237,00.html
Some British banks have been found to less secure than others regarding phishing and fake websites. All my banking is done online and my bank was one of those listed as potentially being less secure. (The bank now says it's going to fix it.) The newspaper article goes on to say that banks will usually refund fraudulant transactions if you have up-to-date virus and spyware software and a firewall.
I wonder where I would stand with my bank if something dodgy happened to my account and I'm not running anti-virus software. How much longer will I be able to sit back and smuggly say "I've got a Mac" (something I do quite a lot actually!) so I'm safe? Something to think about.
Rachel

Hi Rachel, I can't address the legal part of your question. Some British banks have been found to less secure than others regarding phishing and fake websites.Phishing and fake websites (mirrors) are more a function of user awareness. Never click on a link in an email if you suspect phishing, rather go to the banks website in your normal manner. You can also contact your bank to find out if they sent an email.
I don't use any AV or Spyware software. That said, theorectically any Mac could be cracked/hacked. If you use common sense the odds against it happening are long.
You can protect yourself by using your firewall and/or a hard wired router, downloading only from "trusted" sites, installing all security updates and being careful about what you give administrative power to.
Don't use Limewire or any other P2P service to download your software, get it from reputable sources. In addition, always keep at least your users backed up, preferably a clone of your entire system on a separate disk. And put your sensitive passwords, bank accounts, credit card numbers in a "secure note" in a new keychain or in an encrypted folder.
Enjoy your Mac

TA21328 I downloaded a security update and now I cannot access my online banking web site. How do I fix it?

Does anyone have a quick fix for this? I downloaded the latest security update and now I cannot access web page for online banking.

It is not asking what part of your country you are in, but what country/region you are in.
Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:
