Pop-up functionality is used by many Web sites to display advertisements to users, but some services like this one, use pop-up functionality to draw attention to important information. Since this service uses pop-ups as an alert mechanism, it is recommended that you permit pop-ups for this Web site. For example, if you attempt to set-up a recurring payment for a Payee that already has a payment set up, you will be prompted with a pop-up message to ensure you are not setting up a duplicate payment by mistake.
Enabling pop-ups varies based on the browser version and operating system that you are using. For users that have recently downloaded Service Pack 2 for Windows XP (a release that forces users to choose which sites they "trust" and do not), the easiest way to do this is to go the Privacy section within your browser and add global1.onlinebank.com to the list of Web sites that you permit pop-ups to be displayed. By doing this, you can maintain your pop-up blocker settings which restrict the display of advertisements as you navigate the Internet while allowing the display of pop-up messaging used by this service.
For this online service we recommend that you use one of the following browsers:
Windows
* Firefox 1.5
* Firefox 2.0
* Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
* Microsoft Internet Explorer 7
* AOL 9.0
Macintosh
* Firefox 1.5
* Firefox 2.0
* Safari 3.0
* Safari 3.1
You may need to set up your browser to show the toolbar. In Internet Explorer, choose View and Options, and then select the General tab. Under the Toolbar section of the screen, check the box next to Standard buttons.
This service recommends using a modem speed of 28.8 or higher; however, the speed at which you actually connect to the Internet may vary. In addition, performance results may vary when using cable modems due to differences in duplex technology offered by cable providers.
This site is best viewed with a monitor display setting at a minimum of 1024 x 768.
In order to provide optimal security, performance and reliability, this service requires that cookies be enabled on your Web browser. Cookies are a small piece of information that a Web server can store on your browser so the system recognizes your actions during a session.
As you browse the Web, some cookies are "set" on your Web browser. For example, cookies are used to store preferences you have requested on frequently visited Web sites. When you close your browser, some cookies are stored in your computer's memory in a cookie file, while some expire immediately. All cookies have expiration dates.
Cookies cannot be used to obtain data from your computer, get your e-mail address or access sensitive or personal information. The only way that any private information could be part of your cookie file would be if you personally provided that information to a Web site. Also, each cookie can only be read at the site where the cookie was created.
If your online session is inactive for 10 minutes (that is, if you have not submitted any transactions or clicked on any new pages), you will receive a pop-up message, warning that you will be logged off in 4 minutes if there is no further activity. Clicking "Continue" upon receiving the message will allow you to proceed with your online banking activity and will refresh the system for another 14-minute cycle. After receiving the third consecutive inactivity warning, the system will automatically save any transactions you made and terminate the session. The online service is designed this way to provide you with maximum security in case you forget to log out.
You can pay virtually anyone in the United States--from national bank cards, mortgage companies, auto loans, and department stores to the newspaper carrier. Payees that are not eligible for payment through this service include governmental agencies, including but not limited to, the Internal Revenue Service, all state and local tax authorities, collection agencies, as well as recipients of court-ordered payments like child support or alimony. However, payments to government agencies for utilities such as water are permitted. Also not eligible for payment are any organizations or individuals outside of the United States.
You may set-up a Payee and schedule the first payment in the same session. If for any reason the Payee information cannot be verified or is in some way incorrect, you will be notified via this online messaging service so that you may correct the Payee information and reschedule a new payment.
Security begins with your browser session. To protect transactions, we only accept logins originating from a browser that supports the highest level of encryption (128-bit). Encryption prevents transactions from being read by unauthorized parties over the Internet. We recommend that you use one of the following browsers for this service:
Windows
* Firefox 1.5
* Firefox 2.0
* Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
* Microsoft Internet Explorer 7
* AOL 9.0
Macintosh
* Firefox 1.5
* Firefox 2.0
* Safari 3.0
* Safari 3.1
It does not matter whether you have 40-bit or 128-bit encryption because we will create a 128-bit encrypted session for you. For more information about security, click here.
Recurring payments can be scheduled for up to 40 years from Today's date. After the recurring payment is scheduled, only the next payment in the recurring cycle will be displayed in Online Activity.
If you are still in the same session during which you scheduled the payment, you can delete it from the scheduled payments list or the Payment Center list. Click on the trashcan icon next to the payment to initiate the delete. If you have exited the session, you cannot delete the today payment because the transaction has already been completed.
Today payments, payments where the date the user submits the payment and the send on date are the same, start to execute immediately after you log out of the session by debiting your account. Today payments submitted before 12:00pm ET on a business day will be debited and processed on the same day, otherwise, the payment will process on the following business day.
Future scheduled payments are debited on the same day as their send on date, and processed on the scheduled payment send date. However, if the payment's send date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the payment will be processed on the next business day after the send on date.
Based upon the payment delivery method (electronic or check) and time of payment submission the delivery date of the payment may vary. The delivery date will be displayed to you on all payment scheduling and confirmation screens. Please be sure to schedule all payments so the delivery date is on or before the due date of the payment.
This online service will confirm a today transaction only if you have sufficient funds in your funding account to cover it. Future-dated transactions are stored by the system, but the funds are not debited from your account until the scheduled transaction date. If a payment fails due to insufficient funds, an online banking message will be sent and this service will automatically attempt to retry the payment on the next business day. If the payment is successful on the next business day, no further notification is sent. If the payment fails on the retry, a second online banking message will be sent.
If we tell you to schedule the payment so the Deliver By date is on or before its due date and the payment was still late, then we will take the responsibility. On the other hand, if you did not schedule the payment so Delivery By date is on or before the due date, you will be responsible for any late fees. Be particularly aware of mortgage due dates and bank holidays.
Payments scheduled on Saturday, Sunday or holidays will be debited on the same day as their send date, and processed next business day. The payment will be made on the next business day. The following table shows the timing for each type of Online Banking payment.

If a properly scheduled payment is not received and posted on time by the payee, we will attempt to have any late fees or assessed finance charges removed. (Finance charges are calculated based on your payment amount rather than your entire balance.) If the payee is unwilling or unable to remove them, we will pay the fees and finance charges directly to the payee. In addition, we will attempt to have your account noted appropriately to ensure that the situation does not negatively impact your credit rating.
The Payment Guarantee applies to late fees and/or finance charges associated with the late posting of a payment, provided that the following conditions are met:
1. The payment was scheduled to be delivered on or before the due date of your bill, excluding any grace periods. (The one exception to this guideline is that mortgage payments may be scheduled so that the payment is sent on or before the due date, excluding grace periods. For example, a mortgage payment due on July 1st, with a 15-day grace period, must have a "Send On" date no later than July 1st.)
2. The payment was not made to an excluded payee:
* Unprocessed payments due to debit failures
* Payments to settle securities transactions
* Payments to payoff special or delayed financing for purchases
* Payments to credit counseling agencies who pay creditors on your behalf
3. The payment was not made to a prohibited payee. Payments to the following payees are not permitted through this service:
* Payments to payees outside of the United States
* Court-ordered payments such as alimony, child support, speeding tickets, etc.
* Tax entities
* Collection agencies
4. The information supplied by you is correct (payee name and address, your name and account number as it appears on the payee's records).
You can access the accounts that were designated when you signed up for this service. You also may be able to add additional accounts if they are available by contacting your branch.
Recurring transfers can be scheduled for up to 40 years from Today's date. After the recurring transfer is scheduled, only the next transfer in the recurring cycle will be displayed in Online Activity.
"Intrabank" transfers, between your accounts at our institution, are executed the same day. The available balances are adjusted on both accounts the same day of the transfer. For example, the available balance in the "from" account is decremented and the available balance in the receiving account is incremented immediately.
Statement information is only stored and displayed for a limited time period.
For the protection of your personal information, no more than four digits of your account number will be shown under the account number display. We recommend that you do not assign account nicknames that include your account number and change the nickname if the nickname does contain the account number.
