Accessing
Business Telephone Banking
Bank at anytime, from anywhere, with a simple phone call. With Business Telephone Banking you can bank instantly, day or night, 365 days a year using the nearest phone.
There are three types of Business Telephone Banking services to choose from – self-help banking to do your banking telephonically without having to wait or speaking to an agent; agent-assisted banking so you can talk to an agent who will perform banking transactions on your behalf; and our new enhanced telephone banking with multi e-PIN functions.
As the main member of your business, you can now let other members of your business do telephone banking transactions so that transactions no longer need both a creator and an approver to be processed. All you have to do is visit your nearest branch to add members and set limits to the transactions each member can do. Your secondary members then simply need to activate their unique e-PINs so they can then telephonically transact to suit the everyday needs of your business, at no extra cost.
With a host of transactions only a phone call away, banking has never been easier, safer or more hassle-free.
