You must enter the unique Login ID and Password to access
Net banking.
All information transmitted through the Internet, including your Login ID, Password, your account information and your transaction details, from the moment you log in to the time you log out, are protected by strong end-to-end 128 bit SSL encryption; i.e. from your PC browser to the Bank's system.

To prevent unauthorized access at your PC while it is unattended,
we have implemented a time-out feature. Your login session of
Net banking will be terminated if the browser is left idle for

indicated
Your last login date and time are provided in your first screen

We have adopted very high standards and tight control in managing
our computer systems and networks.
- Data Privacy
We shall endeavour to meet internationally recognized standards
of personal data privacy protection. Click here
to read the Data Privacy Policy
Encryption is a method of scrambling
information for transmission so as to prevent unauthorized parties
from reading the information. Encryption transforms data into
an unreadable form, and decryption reverses that process. Both
encryption and decryption require the use of a special code,
usually referred to as a key. The encryption of data provides
a strong degree of protection against tampering while data is
moving through the Internet. At Net banking, all information
transmitted between your browser and our Bank's systems are
scrambled using strong encryption to protect the privacy and
confidentiality of your account information.

Is it safe to use the
service on public / shared PCs?
We strongly recommend that
you do not conduct your Net banking transactions on any such
PCs. And if you do, please clear the browser cache after each
session so that your account information is removed from such
PCs.
Can I use the Mailbox
to send e-mails to my friend?
No. The mailbox is only for
communication between you and Standard Chartered Bank. For security
reasons, we do not accept any financial transaction instructions
through the e-mail.
What should I do if
I see the message that "This program has performed an illegal
operation..." ?
This is commonly known as GPF
(General Protection Fault). This is an error that happens at
your PC. Usually you have to restart your browser and sometimes
you may need to restart your PC. If the problem persists, please
consult your PC vendor.
What should I do if
I see the message that "NOTEPAD.EXE, when you download
a file from the network you should be aware of the security
considerations..."?
You should uncheck the box
"Always ask before opening this type of file" and
re-try
What should I do if
I do not get a response after clicking on a hyperlink or icon?
Sometimes the Internet becomes
unavoidably slow to respond. If there is a delay in response
from when you have clicked something, please wait. Avoid clicking
repeatedly on a particular link. DO NOT CLICK "REFRESH"
OR "RELOAD" BUTTON AS THIS WILL TERMINATE YOUR ONLINE
SESSION AND YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR 15-20 MINUTES BEFORE YOU
CAN LOG IN AGAIN.
If the system does
not respond after I confirm the transaction, how can I know
whether the transaction has been processed?
You can log in to Net banking
again and verify the corresponding account balances and transaction
history or you can call our Phone Banking help-line for assistance.
The response time is mainly
affected by several factors, including the speed of your modem
connection the speed / configuration of your PC, and the volume
of network traffic over the Internet at the moment you are using
the service. Also, since Net banking uses encryption technology,
it tends to slow the responsiveness of the site.
So that you don't have to remember
your 9 or 16 Digit Login ID/Card Number every time you log in
from this PC.
This would make logging to Net banking more convenient and hassle
free for you.
How do I save and use
a Login Nick Name for my Net banking Login ID?
Step 1: Please select the "I
don't have a Login Nick Name" option on the Login Page.
Step 2: Please enter your entire
9 or 16 Digit Login ID/Card Number and enter the password.
Step 3: Please check (select)
the "I would like to record a Login Nick Name..."
option and press "Login".
On your successful login, your
nick name would be recorded against your 9 or 16 Digit Login
ID/Card Number. You could log-out and try logging in again.
Please note: Your created nick
name can be used only from the PC where you created it, if you
access Net banking from more than one PC, you would have to
record your nick names on each of those PCs. We hence recommend
that you should not save a Login Nick Name if you are accessing
Net banking from a public computer which is also accessed by
others, e.g. in a Cyber Café.
You don't have to save a Login
Nick Name; you could always enter your 9/16 Digit Login ID/Card
Number on the login screen along with the password and continue.
We recommend that you should not save a Login Nick Name if you
are accessing Net banking from a public computer which is also
accessed by others, e.g. in a Cyber Café. Net banking will log you in irrespective of whether you have
used your Login Nick Name or the 9/16Digit Login ID/Card Number.
I am trying to login
with a Nick Name that I had created and with the correct password,
but it gives me "Request Cannot Be Processed - Invalid
Sign On" error, with (Ref:30) as the reference for the
error.
For enhanced security we cancel
the nick name after a period of a year, hence the nick name
you had stored has become invalid now. All you have to do is
to create a Login Nick Name again, you could use the same nick
name as earlier. To do so, please enter your entire 9 or 16
Digit Login ID/Card Number and the password and check on "I
would like to record a Login Nick Name" option and press
"Login".
You can then store your nick
name in the pop-up that would be seen on the screen.
At times the cookies on your PC might get deleted, this will
also delete all the nick name information that you have created
on your PC, as we store the information as cookies, and hence
you will get this error. You would have to create the nick name
again, as explained above.
We use an encrypted cookie
to store your Login ID/Card Number along with your selected
"Login Nick Name" on your PC.
There is no record of your
true Login ID/Card Number that is stored on your local PC, hence
making this safe as well as convenient.
As this Login Nick Name is
tagged to the PC from where you create it, we recommend that
you should not save a Login Nick Name if you are accessing Net banking from a public computer which is also accessed by others,
e.g. in a Cyber Café.
