Online Banking

Online Banking is an added service we offer which allows customers to access accounts, make transfers, and view statements from the convenience of their home or wherever they have Internet access.

• You must have an active deposit account with Oxford Chartered Finance Bank
• Internet access
• 16 years of age or older
• Have an Internet browser with 128-bit encryption.

128-bit encryption is a significant level of cryptography that is used to secure Internet transactions. The process of encryption hides data or the contents of a message in such a way that the original information can be recovered through a corresponding decryption process. The possibility of a brute-force decryption by another computer would be 2 to the power of 128. Yes, the browser you use must support 128-bit encryption.

Definitions:

• Brute-force decryption - using a computer to exhaustively calculate and try every possible key one by one.
  
• Key- a long sequence of bits used by encryption/decryption algorithms.

Your password and User Id are both case sensitive. After three failed login attempts you are locked out of the Internet banking system.

You will notice when you navigate our website that there are a few visual assurances of safety. First, when you choose to sign in or login to Online Banking a notice will come on screen stating that “You are about to view pages over a secure connection”. Second, you will see in the address bar that the address has an extra “s” after the http. This “s” stands for a secure server site. Also, you will see a closed padlock in the lower right-hand corner of your monitor. If the padlock is open or not present you are not on a secure site.

Online banking is offered at NO cost to all Oxford Chartered Finance Bank customers.

Here are a few possibilities:

• You are not an Oxford Chartered Finance Bank customer
  
• You do not have an active deposit account.
  
• You have not accessed your accounts for 60 days thereby locking yourself out of service. This dormancy is a security feature.
  
• Your access has been locked out due to entering the incorrect password 3 consecutive times.
  

If you need help resetting your password or reactivating your account please contact an Oxford Chartered Finance Bank customer service representative and we'll get you back on track.

If you forget your password contact an Oxford Chartered Finance Bank employee by phone or by e-mail. For security purposes we will only divulge your password information to you in person or by phone, since e-mail transactions are not considered secure.

We recommend that you use the most up to date version of your preferred browser. For example:

• Google Chrome
• Apple/Mac Safari
• Mozilla Firefox
• Microsoft Internet Explorer
• Microsoft Edge
