First, you should always allow enough time for the payee to receive and post your payment. Remember to allow at least 48 hours for electronic payments and up to 7-10 days for check/draft payments. If you receive a late notice, and more than enough time was given for the payment, call the payee directly to ensure your payment and late notice did not cross in the mail. If you believe an error has occurred, you can e-mail us at netteller@csbnow.com with the payee's name, payment date, amount, account number, and telephone number or call us at 1-800-369-5362 and we can research the payment.
Back To Top

What happens if I don't have enough money in my account to cover a Bill Payment? Will I be notified?
For electronic payments, if your account has sufficient overdraft protection to cover the payment, we'll draw against that, otherwise the payment will be canceled and not processed.  For check payments, if your account has sufficient overdraft protection to cover the payment, we'll draw against that, otherwise the check may be returned and may receive NSF and Overdraft charges on your account.

How safe is my account information?
Please refer to our "Security Statement" for the complete details of our security. Links to our Security Statement can also be found at the top left-hand side of the Bank's Web Site Home Page and on the first page of the Interenet Banking program.
 
Our Part in keeping your account information safe
We use commercially reasonable security technology to keep your account information safe. With encryption, firewalls, and trusted operating systems incorporated into our overall banking architecture, authentic transactions may take place over the internet with relative safety. No system is completely safe from third parties, however, especially the internet. As such, we cannot guarantee the security of all communications. Please refer to our "Security Statement" for the details of our security.
 
Your Part in keeping your account information safe
Your Netteller ID and Pin are confidential and you should exercise care when using them. Don't make your password something that can be easily guessed or figured out.

    • Never lend your Netteller ID or Pin to anyone and never write them on your PC or any computer materials.
    • Never accept advice from strangers while you are using it. Beware of fraudulent requests for your password by someone posing as a Bank employee. A Bank employee would never ask for this information!
    • Never use a "Save Password" feature if offered by your browser. (This is a feature available in Microsoft Explorer 5.0) This would allow anyone who opens your browser access to your account information without needing a password.

Use a browser with 128-bit encryption. (Encryption is a method of scrambling information transmitted between you and the Bank.) Please refer to our "Security Statement" section for the more recommendations you can follow to ensure maximum security of your account information.
