How do I know if transacting through SMS Banking
is secure? |
| |
Each SMS Banking transaction requires a
user defined 4-digit Pin Code which you are
required to provide at the point of activation.
This Pin Code is similar to your password.
To set this Pin Code during activation, send
‘RG’ followed by <space>
and the 4-digit Pin Code to 32722. You will
receive a successful registration message
from us.
We strongly advise that you immediately
delete your message from your “Sent
Messages” folder immediately after that,
to protect the security of your Pin Code.
You should follow this practice EVERY time
you send any message bearing your Pin Code. |

defined 4-digit
Pin Code <space> and
the last 4-digit
of your account number that

I have received a response from the bank in
two messages. Will I be charged for the second
message? |
| |
The response from certain functions such as
Transaction History may not be sufficiently
displayed in one message due to the limited
number of characters supported by SMS (160 characters).
Hence, the message is delivered to you in two
parts or messages. You will not be charged for
messages received from 32722. However, local
telco SMS charges will still apply to SMS request
sent to 32722 from your mobile phone. |

You are strongly discouraged from subscribing
if you are sharing your mobile phone as you
will be receiving information on your accounts
on the mobile phone. To maintain the confidentiality
of your accounts, please ensure the mobile phone
is not shared. |
