        1. How do I improve my credit score?

          Regular, timely payments on your bills are the best way to improve your credit score. These payments won’t necessarily immediately give you a boost—the credit scoring agencies want to see that you can consistently make regular payments over several years. Over the long run, however, on-time, in-full payments are the most reliable way to achieve a higher credit score. 

          You may see a faster boost to your credit score by reducing your credit utilization ratio. This means the amount of money you owe, compared to the amount you’re allowed to borrow. For example, if your credit card limit is $2,000 and you regularly spend nearly that amount per billing cycle, your credit score will likely be lower than if you have a credit limit of $20,000 and you regularly spend nearly $2,000 per billing cycle. In each case, you’re spending the same amount, but in the second example you’re using less of your available credit—that’s something credit scoring agencies like to see.

          In cases like this, a simple step like requesting an increased line of credit on your credit card (but not spending more), or like regularly paying half your credit card bill in the middle of the billing cycle, could boost your score relatively quickly.

          Other things that impact your credit score: how long you’ve had credit (the longer the better, particularly if you’ve had most of your accounts a long time), how many recent credit inquiries you’ve had on your account (the fewer, the better) and the total amount you still owe (the lower the better).

        7. Why is my request for Digital Banking access showing as declined or pending?

          When you complete the Digital Banking enrollment process, we must verify the information you provide in order to prevent any unauthorized access to your account. The security of client information is one of our highest priorities. If your request for Digital Banking has been declined, it most likely means we were not able to successfully verify the information you provided during the enrollment process. A pending status most likely means we are working to verify your information. We will email you to notify you when your Digital Banking enrollment request is approved or declined.

          If you have questions or concerns about your Digital Banking enrollment, please call Client Care at 1-800-731-2265, and one of our associates would be happy to assist you.
