Why does my FNBOnline PIN
expire? How often does is expire?
FNBOnline PIN’s expire every 90 days for security reasons. You will
automatically be prompted to change your password
starting 14 days before the expiration date.
FNBOnline is telling me my
account is locked. What does this mean?
When there are three unsuccessful attempts to logon
to FNBOnline, your ID will become locked for
security reasons. Just call your local FNB location or give us a call at
866-310-6480 (toll free) during normal
support hours. We will verify your identity and reset your PIN within 24
hours.
When I sign on, I see "You
have 1 new message" What is this?
A feature on FNBOnline is the ability to send and receive secure messages.
When you see "You have 1 new message" displayed, simply click on the red
dot and your incoming secure message will be displayed. You may reply to,
print, or simply read the message and discard it.
I
can’t remember my FNBOnline ID number. Is there any way to change
it?
Once you login, click on "Options" at the top of the page. Then, simply
type in your new "Personal ID" on the appropriate line and click Submit.
The next time you login, use this new ID. Remember that each ID must be
unique, so if your choice is already taken you will have to select
another.
What
happens if I don't log off the system?
If you are inactive for a period of 10 minutes, you will be
transferred to the home page of First National Bank. If you wish to
continue, you will have to logon to FNBOnline again. If you close your
browser window while still connected to FNBOnline, your session will
automatically terminate when you close your browser.
Does
FNBOnline use "Cookies"?
FNBOnline uses "cookies" to keep track of a user's session. When a user
logs into FNBOnline, the website sends three "cookies" to his computer.
The first two act as a laundry claim-check; they are merely sequentially
assigned numbers. The third is a large random string that allows us to
verify that someone isn't trying to impersonate a legitimate user by
guessing the value of the first two "cookies." The "cookies" are only
valid for one session; each time users log in, they receive a new set of
cookies. We use “cookies” to ensure the
user has entered a valid FNBOnline ID and PIN, and to ensure the
user's session hasn't timed-out.
The use of "cookies" also allows us to speed up FNBOnline
by temporarily storing some user information in our web server's memory.
Accessing the user's information in memory is much faster than having to
retrieve it from the host or from a database every time it is needed. When
the user logs off or the session times out, the information held in memory
is discarded.
It is possible to create a website like FNBOnline without using cookies.
However, the security aspects of such a site would be much more obvious to
the user and, therefore, less secure. We feel requiring cookies in
FNBOnline is a small price to pay for the added security and improved user
experience!

Multi-Factor Authentication FAQ’s
What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?
Multi-Factor Authentication is a new online security feature that adds an additional layer of protection to your FNBOnline banking accounts. MFA will help you distinguish our website from look-a-like websites by choosing your own personal image. MFA will also ask you to answer your own personal security questions if any unusual or uncharacteristic activity is noticed while you are signed on to your online accounts.
Why is this change taking place?
The increase in threats to the security of personal financial information and funds is causing concern among customers, financial institutions and regulators. The Federal Financial Examination has issued a new regulation requiring all financial institutions to use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to safeguard its customers during online transactions. This new level of security helps you guard against fraudulent online activities like “Phishing” and “Pharming”, through which unsuspecting account holders are tricked into divulging their user names and passwords on phony websites. These phony websites have been designed to resemble those of their actual financial institution.
What do Phishing and Pharming mean?
Phishing, (pronounced fishing) is the attempt to fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as passwords and credit card details. The act of sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be a legitimate enterprise in an effort to scam the user into surrendering private information is a common way of obtaining this information. The email may state something like “Your account will expire if you do not log on and update your profile” The email would contain a false link for you to follow and most likely look like a legitimate website. Pharming (pronounced farming) is a hacker’s attack aiming to redirect a website’s traffic to a bogus website.
How does Multi-Factor Authentication work?
MFA has two parts: an image (watermark) and three security questions. When you access FNBOnline, you will first enter your FNBOnline ID. Your Personal Image will appear to the left of the page, verifying your have entered First National Bank’s website. It is important that you NEVER enter your password without seeing your personal image. Once you view your image, you may enter your password on the same screen. You will then be directed to your homepage with your personal account information. You image should always remain in the left bottom corner.
How do I choose my Personal Image and can I change it?
You may choose your own Personal Image from our library during sign-on. You may change your Personal Image at anytime by clicking on the image. If the image or correct image does not appear, do not enter ANY personal information. You may not upload your own Personal Image. Images only from our specific library may be used.
How do I choose my security questions and can I change them?
After a small monitoring period, you will be prompted to select three security questions automatically. Each question box will be a drop down box and you may choose which questions you would like. Your answers should be something you can easily remember, yet not known by others. If you share your account access with anyone, you may want to establish your questions together so you both know the answers. Enter your answers carefully as you will need to supply the same exact answer if prompted with one of your questions. Your security questions can not be changed so make sure your questions and answers are ones that will remain the same after a long period of time.
When will I be asked my security questions?
You will only be prompted to answer your security questions if unusual or uncharacteristic activity is detected. Uncharacteristic or unusual behavior is anything that appears out-of-the-ordinary compared to your normal online banking activity, such as an unusually large transfer. We may also prompt you to answer your security questions if you log on from an unfamiliar PC. You may use multiple computers to access your FNBOnline accounts, such as your work PC and your home PC; however if you should use a computer that is not normally used, you may be prompted to answer a security question.
Do I have to use Multi-Factor Authentication?
Yes. The Federal Financial Examination has issued a new regulation requiring all financial institutions to use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to safeguard its customers during online transactions.
Will I still have access to the same accounts or need to reset any other settings?
You will still have the same access prior to MFA activation. This process only affects how you login and the verification of our website.
What do I do if I am blocked out from signing on?
You will need to contact your local branch and let them know you are blocked from sign-on. Please be able to identify yourself with the customer service representative when calling.
