Androscoggin bank is committed to providing the most up to date, easy to use, secure technology for our customers. The new upgraded experience provides clients with more secure, user-friendly options.  It also allows for new ways of making payments and transferring money.  It also includes enhanced features like credit score and report as well as additional alerts and other new functionality. 

Right now our target date for go live is October 18th for small business and retail users. Treasury customers will be invited to transition to the new system starting on August 22nd through October 18th. 2022. 

There will be a brief interruption in service the weekend before our “go live” date in October as we put the final touches on the system and migrate your unique information. There will also be a few days prior to go live where bill pay changes may not be available.  

Interruption in Service Details:

Retail Online Banking: At 5PM (EST) on 10/14/22 Retail clients will still be able to login and see transactions in their retail online banking login but they will be in inquiry only mode until the morning of 10/18/22.  This allows us to transfer all of your information to our new upgraded system and helps to avoid duplicate transactions and security.  We apologize for this inconvenience.

Business Online Banking: At 5PM (EST) on 10/14/22 Business online banking access will no longer be available until the morning of 10/18/22.  This allows us to transfer all of your information to our new upgraded system and helps to avoid duplicate transactions and security.  We apologize for this inconvenience.

Billpay Clients: Any recurring or prescheduled payments will continue to go out with no interruption until 10/14/22, but customers will no longer have access to Bill Pay after 10/7/22 at 5:00pm.

Positive Pay Clients: Positive pay will be removed from the existing online banking systems the week of September 19th. For clients using positive pay we recommend getting used to the new environment during Limited Production testing starting August 22nd.  You will still need to make decisions in the existing online banking system until September 19th.  One the change is made you will need to make decisions in the new online banking system after the week of September 19th.  Your Treasury Services team will help support you in this transition.

Yes and no. Some items will be migrated to the new system and some will not. See below for details. 

Users and account access:  

All users will transfer to the new system. This includes user IDs and accounts they have access to. You will not have to set up or enroll a second time. For business clients we recommend checking to be sure your users have the right privileges to accounts. This is a great opportunity to review to make sure their access is still appropriate for your business needs. 

Bill pay: 

All of your bill pay transactions and payees will transfer over to the new system. You will not have to set these all up again. This includes recurring transfers that you have already created in bill pay. 

Internal Transfers and Loan Payments: 

Internal Transfers and Loan Payments that you previously scheduled in online banking WILL need to be setup again. Our new upgraded system allows for more options when paying loans and more options when scheduling recurring transfers. You will need to set these up again in order to take advantage of this new functionality. Loan payments and internal transfers previously setup prior to the upgrade will not occur.

Alerts:  

You will need to setup alerts again in the new system. The system has better alert capability and more options.  Alerts formerly setup prior to October 18th will not be sent after the upgrade. 

ACH Payments and Wire Templates:  

Your Payroll and Vendor ACH and Wire Templates (instructions) will be migrated to the new system. You will not need to set the payment instructions up again. You will need to review and approve these prior to sending them out again.  Recurring payments must also be rescheduled and sent. They will not be sent automatically.

Mint/Quicken/QuickBooks Connections: 

You will need to reconnect your Quicken and QuickBooks to our new online banking system. Please see below FAQ for further instructions.

Treasury clients use services like ACH, Wire, advanced reporting and advanced user management tools.  Because your use of online banking is more complex than other users we want to make sure you have the level of support you need in order to access the system. Your input is valuable to us. You will be able to test the environment before others and your feedback will help us make it even better. In addition, we have thousands of other retail and small business users that will be going live on the same day in October, having you test the system before they do means we will be able to provide you with dedicated support.

Your user ID will remain the same and you will now access the system with a soft token that will replace your existing hard token device. Soft tokens are digital authentication keys. They’re called ‘soft tokens’ because soft tokens are based on software. Single-use authentication codes, authenticator apps, or clickable authentication links are all soft tokens. Soft tokens can be stored on almost any device and are easy to create. You will simply download an easy to use app on your phone called Symantec VIP and provide a unique code to login to online banking that is displayed on the app. 

Soft tokens have rapidly become the industry-standard security replacement over hard tokens. Many companies and banks now offer soft tokens, replacing hard tokens entirely as a security practice. There are several benefits to soft-tokens vs. hard tokens. Soft tokens replace the physical hard token with a software application that can run on a variety of devices. They offer a more flexible, dynamic, secure and easy-to-manage option in today’s increasingly mobile and cloud-based environments. Software tokens do have additional benefits: there is no physical token to carry, they do not contain batteries that will run out, and they are cheaper than hardware tokens. Client also rarely forget a soft token since it is generally accessed using a smart phone that the user always carries on their person. 

Hardware tokens suffer from a number of limitations. They are expensive, they can break or get lost or stolen, they are difficult to distribute to teams that are not in the same geographic location and require a significant amount of IT resources to manage. It is important that the bank offers you a solution that is secure, flexible and cost effective, in order to keep our costs low for you and invest in other solutions and services that offer you other value. Most hard tokens are also not secure enough to be used alone and are therefore used in conjunction with passwords. Not only does this result in increased overhead, but as long as passwords remain an authentication credential – alone or in conjunction with another factor of authentication – they can be phished, cracked, or stolen after being hashed. In most cases, hard tokens are used as an additional factor, rather than a replacement of passwords, some have no support for enterprise network access, and they can incorporate static passwords that remain a vulnerability once inside the network.

For the reasons outlined above, we strongly recommend using a different device to download the Symantec VIP soft token. As an alternative to smart phone app download, you may download a soft token to your computer versus a smart phone. 

The Symantec VIP app does not contain any company information.  It does not allow access to the company bank account information on your phone.  It simply displays a unique, one-time code to you that you enter into online banking. No company information whatsoever is stored on your personal device. 

The bank recommends the municipality update the policy to reflect soft tokens be allowed, since Soft-tokens are now industry standard security practice. We recognize that some of these policies have been established many years ago and have not been updated with current industry-standard practices. 

Downloading your Online Banking Symantec VIP Soft Token

Go to the Symantec VIP Token site here and click Download: Symantec VIP - Two Factor Authentication Anywhere

To download to mobile, choose VIP Access for Mobile for either iOS or Android, to download to your desktop choose VIP Access for Computer for either Mac or Windows

Once the Token is downloaded please provide the “Credential ID” to the ASB employee helping with your onboarding over the phone. Do not email the ID number to the bank. There are four letters and eight numbers in each credential ID.

View of Desktop Token: View of Mobile Token: When logging in with a Token for the first time, you will need to enter two Security Codes.

Enter the first six digit security code in box one, wait for the security code to change on the token (this may take up to thirty seconds) and enter the second six digit code and click login.

On your next login and subsequent logins, you will only be required to enter one security code. *Please Note: If you get a new Mobile device or Computer you will need to provide a new Credential ID to the bank.

Our system will have a more intuitive interface for ACH.  It will be easier to send ACH transactions. Your cutoff times will remain the same and the type of transactions you can send will remain the same. You will have more controls for user limits, dual control and other security features you organization may want to use. One difference is that the funds will be debited from you on the day of the initiated transaction. Right now your funds are held but not withdrawn from your account.  In the future they will be withdrawn and held in a settlement account. Because of this you will see a new debit on our account activity to represent this settlement. Your current funds availability will not change.

Only for the better! You will still have all of the same aspects of the remote scanner and deposit service you have had before. There will be no need to swap or reinstall a scanner and you will use the remote deposit system the same way you have in the past. We are introducing one major improvement. You can now access your merchant capture for scanned deposits and mobile deposits right through your new upgraded online banking environment. You can continue to use the separate login in to deposit checks, but you do not have to.  One login to remember is designed to make our clients lives easier, giving them one place to manage all of their banking needs.

SavvyMoney is a comprehensive Credit Score program offered by your bank that helps you stay on top of your credit. You get your latest credit score and report, an understanding of key factors that impact the score, and can see the most up to date offers that can help reduce your interest costs. With this program, you always know where you stand with your credit and how your financial institution can help save you money.

Credit Score also monitors your credit report daily and informs you by email if there are any big changes detected such as: a new account being opened, change in address or employment, a delinquency has been reported or an inquiry has been made. Monitoring helps users keep an eye out for identity theft.

SavvyMoney Credit Report provides you all the information you would find on your credit file including a list of open loans, accounts and credit inquiries. You will also be able to see details on your payment history, credit utilization and public records that show up on your account. When you check your credit report, there will be no impact to your score.

You’ll also see offers on how you can save money on your new and existing loans with Androscoggin Bank.

SavvyMoney uses bank level encryption and security measures to keep your data safe and secure. Your personal information is never shared with or sold to a third party.

SavvyMoney pulls your credit profile from TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting bureaus, and uses VantageScore 3.0, a credit scoring model developed collaboratively by the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This model seeks to make score information more uniform between the three bureaus to provide consumers a better picture of their credit health.

There are three major credit-reporting bureaus—Equifax, Experian and Transunion—and two scoring models—FICO or VantageScore—that determine credit scores. Financial institutions use different bureaus, as well as their own scoring models. Over 200 factors of a credit report may be considered when calculating a score and each model may weigh credit factors differently, so no scoring model is completely identical. No matter what credit bureau or credit scoring model is used, consumers do fall into specific credit ranges: Excellent 781–850, Good 661-780, Fair 601-660, Unfavorable 501-600, Poor Below 500.

The SavvyMoney Credit Score makes its best effort to show you the most relevant information from your credit report. If you think that some of the information is wrong or inaccurate, we encourage you to take advantage of obtaining free credit reports from Annual Credit Report.com - Home Page, and then pursuing action with each bureau individually. Each bureau has its own process for correcting inaccurate information but every user can “File a Dispute” by clicking on the “Dispute” link within their SavvyMoney Credit Report. However, The Federal Trade Commission website offers instructions how to contact the bureaus and correct errors.

SavvyMoney pulls the credit score based on the information of the primary account holder. If a Joint Account would like to benefit from this service, they should sign-up for a savings account where they are the primary account holder.
