I can’t access online banking. What should I do?
Western State Bank recently transitioned to new Online & Mobile Banking platforms. Passwords were changed to a temporary password. If you have not yet set up your new credentials please visit our step-by-step guide for how to log in.
If you already set up your new credentials please try the following:
First, check to make sure you are typing the correct user ID and password; your user ID must be typed in all lowercase letters, and your password is case sensitive. As a security feature, your account will be locked after three failed attempts. If this happens, and if you're unable to reset your password on your own, please contact your local banking center to help you access your account. If you have any other issues, please contact us. We’d be happy to walk you through it!
What is required to open an account and how much do I have to deposit?
We require a minimum deposit of $250 to open an account. Please visit your local banking center and be sure to bring your government issued photo ID, social security card, and proof of address when setting up the account.
What are your locations, hours and contact information?
