ATM Safety and Best Practices

ATM Safety and Best Practices


We are concerned about your safety as well as your financial security. Here are a few tips you should always observe when using an ATM.
  • Always observe your surroundings before conducting an ATM transaction.
  • Treat your ATM card like cash.
  • Keep your PIN a secret. Your ATM card will only work with your Personal Identification Number. Never write it on the card or store it with your card. Never tell your PIN to anyone. Not even the financial institution should know your PIN.
  • Take your ATM receipt with you. Do not leave it at the ATM
  • Report a lost or stolen card at once.
  • Check your receipts against your monthly statement to protect yourself from ATM fraud. Verify the transactions each month.
  • Use our Mobile Banking feature to monitor your account and turn off your ATM card if not in use or misplaced.
  • If the ATM is poorly lit, go to another ATM.
  • Never let anyone distract you at the ATM.
