Internet B@nking

Do you use the internet to access your bank account, pay bills or make transfers?

Yep, we use it all the time here. Use two banks, one has a better internet banking setup than the other. But pretty handy, IMO.

Security wise, it's probably more secure than phone banking, and physically safer than using ATM's in a mall.

It's also cheaper than going into a branch and seeing a human teller, at least in Australia, anyway.

Cheers
Mick

I have for years. Good stuff, very handy.
BUT, some banks have much better software than others. If you are thinking about it, check out a few sites.
(I've banked on line with 5 different banks over the last 5 years)

Yes, for paying bills/credit cards payments/transfers.....buy online. Only go to actual bank to get actual $$.

Yeah, I do. I download statements for my three credit cards (two of them directly through Quicken's Online Banking feature, the third as a download from a website that lets me then load directly into Quicken). I also have access to my checking and money-market savings accounts through another web site. I use that primarily for transfers. I prefer not to make payments online (don't ask me why; I haven't got a good answer).

If you use American Express Blue to make online payments, they cover you for fraud. To a limit.

It took some convincing for my wife to agree to do online banking. Now she loves it, mainly because I do everything now. We're with a small bank, not sure if that makes us more secure or more vulnerable.

As Internet explorers SSL support is currently broken & no patch has been released, to the best of my knowledge, I would think twice about using it for internet banking. However in general I find internet banking to be very convinient.
