My local bank (small town...2 locations...not a national chain) has an online banking feature. The homepage has a link that says "Online Banking"...click here....you know the drill. Sometimes for days at a time, I cannot access it.
Here's the weird part....It's not just the online banking....I cannot even access the bank's homepage, which should be visible to everyone!
Here's my connection details...Internet is through a wireless router with a Sprint EVDO wireless card. I cannot access the site using any computer in the house. We have tried re-setting the router, bypassing the router using the wireless card in my laptop...nothing.
I can access it at work, so it isn't the site. Now, it has been unavailable for 8 days.
I've contacted the bank, but their "online banking rep" is just a 20-yr-old girl who happens to know more about computers than anyone else in the bank. The last time this happened, it lasted 9 days, then 1 morning...BOOM...it loaded.
HELP!!!
Try lowering your security setting within IE. It may be set to high. In addition, online banking normally would attempt to install some sort of ACTIVE-X plugin. If you setting is too high then the plugin is not installed.
Good Luck Mate!

Complete scam.... give away signs are
email address abbeynplc@live.com
yeah right Abbey National a huge bank use a free email service... you don't think they might have xxx@abbey.com ?
the address is crap... doesn't even have a postcode
telephone number +447xxx is a mobile phone number... probably redirects to another country... again ask yourself why a bug bank would want you to call them on a mobile phone !
don't touch it.... don't answer... you may wish to forward it to the real abbey national at phishing@abbey.com , but that's up to you
Never trust any email that pretends to be from or about a bank... look up the bank yourself (google etc) and check with them direct... don't click on any links in the email they will take you to a fake site.
in this case just google 'abbey national'
i just got my first job and he company offers direct deposit, which i would like to use rather than get a pay check, for i do a lot of online shopping. my mom and i went to national city today, to find that i could use a check card, but it would have to be in her name. i would not mind having her cosign, but i would like to be the main holder, which banks offer this?
Get a student checking account and get a card tied to it.
I have no I.D because when my Mother remarried she changed my last name to her husband's last name, but it wasn't done legal, but I didn't know. As I grew up, I had all my records in the "new name", e.g National Insurance Number, qualifications. I couldn't get a Passport or Driver's License in my new name because it was a different name to the one on my Birth Certificate. I couldn't get one in my "old name" bacause my Birth Certificate was the only I.D I had for my old name.
How did I solve it? I paid for a Deedpoll (you can get it done online) and that solved the problem BUT I didn't get round to getting a Passport or Driver's License.
Today's problem= I have a cheque to cash for over £400, but my bank closed my account without telling me why. So I want to cash it at Moneyshop or Cash Converters or somewhere similar. BUT I don't have photo I.D or signature I.D. All have is:
my Birth Certificate and Deed Poll
Official letters for proof of address
my old bank card
My Mother already has an account with one of the moneyshop thingys and is wondering is this would help me?
Inland Revenue said I could cancel the cheque and get a new one sent with my Mother's or partner's bank account details on it. But they took nearly 2 months to send this cheque. I want my money now! Please help!
If it is of any help, a HMRC replacement cheque takes about three weeks.
You don't say which name cheque is made out in. These cheques are crossed, so can only be paid through your bank account. I think you have three options, either get a replacement cheque in correct name, sort out with bank why they closed your account, or ask Revenue to send you a Giro cheque that you can cash at a Post Office instead of a crossed cheque. The latter may be put through a bit quicker.
here is the letter i got is it true?who got one?

Check the other questions on this site and you will see what a scam it is. There are a lot of people that won also. Just how many million dollar winners can there be.This is a Nigeria scam. Yahoo/MSN, U.K. and Australian lotteries, football lotteries from the same counties, Global-Link, World Poverty, Microsoft, Free Lotto, which now seems to have it's own people answering gambling questions on this site claiming they have won which is a total lie, and hundreds more. I am a retired Police Officer that has years of experience investigating Internet scams and frauds. This is an old one. The common link to them getting your email is on line surveys. Yahoo does not give it's stock holders money away nor does it give it's email subscribers address's to lotteries. The only way to win in a lottery is to buy a ticket, if you didn't you could not possibly win. Here is the website of the 17 nation law enforcement task force that investigates cross border Internet crime. You may file a complaint there. www.econsumer.gov. Also go to www.ripoffreport.com and browse complaints and you will find many having the same doubts as yourself about these scams. Below is a typical scam and how they work it. They just go under a thousand different names. They are asking you to send a prepayment to collect your winnings and they want you to send it by a money wire service. Lotteries do not just pick your name out of thin air, and just so happen to have your email also. No Internet service provider gives their email list out to lotteries. If you did not pay to play you could not possibly win.

Old San Antonio National Bank Building Marker
This structure was built to house the San Antonio National Bank, organized by George W. Brackenridge and others in 1866 as the first federally chartered banking institution in the city. Cyrus L.W. Eidlitz, a New York architect, designed the building using limestone mined from area quarries. Completed in 1886, it served as the fourth structure for the bank. The Victorian design features Moorish arches, ornate ironwork, and a decorative southeast corner tower. The bank occupied the facility until 1970.
