On your computer, update your phone profile in Mobile Banking. We recommend removing your old phone number and re-enrolling (and then activating) your new device.
Can I use Mobile Banking on more than one phone?
Yes. Simply enroll and then activate another phone number.
I activated Mobile Banking on my phone's browser. Why am I asked to activate again?
At the time of activation on your phone's browser, a cookie is generated which always tells the Mobile Banking system that you activated your phone allowing you to proceed to the sign on screen. However, some mobile phone will periodically erase all cookies and require you to reactivate. Also, check your phone settings to ensure that cookies are enabled. If enabled and the issue persists, consider using an alternative mobile web browser with strong cookie support, such as Opera Mini (which can be found by visiting mini.opera.com on your phone's browser).
What if my device is lost or stolen?
