Online Banking With Your Touch Pro

flyhigh · #1 (**permalink**) 01-09-2009, 02:17 PM

Does anyone do any banking with their TP? Do you feel comfortable enough with the Touch Pro/Windows Mobile/Opera combination to do online bill paying, account balance checking and other sensitive financial transactions? If so, are there any special precautions that should be taken? I would obviously not let my browser save my login and password in case I lost my phone but what else should I be aware of?

I haven't had any problems and I do this all the time. I bank with wellsfargo and citibank, and both let me access them as if i was on a desktop. I believe that if you're on an ev-do network, I honestly believe thats even more secure then a wi-fi signal but I could be wrong.

I check my USAA accounts through my phone all the time, worked fine on my TP while I had it.

Neither do I so I haven't had any worries or concerns lol! But if you do have cash, just remember to log out and don't have the Wand or whatever save your password for that page.

Same here, with the mobile version. Transfers and bill paying don't seem to be a problem.
