OUR NEW TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION SYSTEM

We are certain that these new ways of confirming your identity will deny unauthorized users access to your account. And, if you can’t fulfill these authentication requirements, your account will be locked. However, the glass is half full, because if you’re locked out of your account the hackers are, too. Here are the other ways you’ll soon be able to verify your identity:

Knock on the Door

Nothing proves that it’s you like seeing you. We will send a representative to your home and he or she will knock twice. Once you open the door, you will have to show your driver’s license and the electronic device you used to log in. If you don’t answer within thirty seconds, we will have to send another representative to your home to knock (twice) on your door for verification. That could take anywhere from ten minutes to four hours, depending on traffic.
