Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any special software required?
No. All you need is access to the Internet using one of the following browsers: Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari 7.0 or higher (the latest versions are highly recommended for your greatest security, and older browser support may be discontinued at any time). Browsers must support at least a 128-bit Secure Sockets layer (SSL) encryption protocol.
Is Online Banking secure?
Yes. Besides using 128-bit encryption, The Bank of The West’s Online Banking is built with several additional safeguards to ensure your account information remains secure. Should someone attempt to access your account portfolio using an incorrect password more than three times, The Bank of The West will lock the entire session from use for 30 minutes. Should this happen more than three times, the lockout will become permanent and can only be cleared by a The Bank of The West administrator. Should you forget to logout of Online Banking, your session will automatically be terminated after 15 minutes of no activity.
What if my ACCESS ID and/or PASSWORD don’t seem to work?
There are a couple of solutions to this problem. The most common issue is the placement of your CAPS LOCK key. Your ACCESS ID and PASSWORD are case sensitive. The second most common issue is a complete lockout of your account. If you weren’t sure of your PASSWORD, and began guessing or didn’t realize that you were entering your PASSWORD in the wrong case, you had only three chances to get it right. As a security feature, we lockout all accounts if an incorrect PASSWORD is entered on the third try. The lockout session will last for 30 minutes. If you initiate the lockout three times, then it becomes permanent. Then the only way to reset a lockout is by calling us at (580) 661-3541 during regular business hours.
