Answer

You have five minutes to respond to the initial text from 96923 before alerts are sent via email and phone. If we can’t reach you between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m., your card will stay suspended until you respond or call 855.293.2456 to unlock it.

If you ever receive a text message asking for your account numbers or other personal information, please do not respond and contact us at 1.866.398.7226.

Answer

If suspicious activity is detected, you’ll receive a text from 96923 within minutes. If there’s no response within five minutes, we’ll follow up by email and phone.

Answer

All users will be automatically enrolled in Fraud Alerts.

Answer

If you confirm that your card has had a fraudulent transaction, the card will be deactivated and you will need to contact customer care at 1.866.398.7226 to have new card produced. If you receive a new card, you will automatically be registered with the newly issued card number, and alerts will reflect this new number.

Answer

It is always a good practice to inform us of your travel plans by calling customer care at 1.866.398.7226 prior to traveling outside of the U.S. Doing so will help avoid having legitimate charges flagged as potentially fraudulent. In some cases, your card may be blocked from further transactions until we are able to contact you.

Messages can only be sent via U.S. carriers and will only be receivable in the U.S. If a transaction is flagged as suspicious we will send a text but it may not be received while you are outside of the U.S. Some messages on U.S. carriers may be received while traveling; however, it will depend on that carrier’s coverage area.

Answer

It is important to let us know when and where you are traveling. You can call Customer Care at 1.866.398.7226 to notify us of your travel dates. While it is extremely important when traveling outside the country, we recommend you let us know anytime you are traveling, even if it seems a short distance. Anytime activity occurs outside your normal spending trends, it may trigger an alert from our Alert System.

Answer

Initial telephone contact will not be specific to a certain card. Once someone responds to the message, they will be told the last four digits of the card that has the questionable transaction. In an effort to keep messages separate, each member of a household may want to provide their own primary number for calling purposes, such as a mobile number.

Answer

If suspicious activity is detected, your card will be temporarily suspended and you’ll get a text from 96923 asking you to verify the transaction. If you don’t respond within five minutes, we’ll follow up by email and then with a phone call from 800-237-8990. If we can’t reach you between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m., your card will stay suspended until you respond or call 855-293-2456 to unlock it.

One main difference between a will and a trust is that a will goes into effect only after you die, while a trust takes effect as soon as you create it. A will is a document that directs who will receive your property at your death and it appoints a legal representative to carry out your wishes.

Answer

In law, a trust is a relationship where property is held by one party for the benefit of another party. A trust is created by the owner, also called a "settlor", "trustor" or "grantor" who transfers property to a trustee. The trustee holds that property for the trust's beneficiaries.

Once you’ve found a property, the loan process can proceed from the pre-qualification stage to loan approval. This process is when your property appraisal will be ordered by your mortgage team here at Extraco, as well as some behind the scenes work getting your file ready for the “Clear to Close”.

It is important to obtain a pre-qualification to understand how much you can afford. A pre-qualification is a great first step in the process.
