Can I use FHB Alerts if I don’t have an email account or access to the Internet at my home?

You can only setup an alert through your FHB Online Banking account. If you do not have an internet connection at home, you can still access online banking from any computer with internet access.

Can I specify what time I want to receive an FHB Alert?

No. The alert notifications are sent to you after the activity or transaction occurs. Some events occur throughout a banking day and some happen at the end of the business day or even after normal business hours.

Yes. FHB Alerts are available for all accounts.

Do I have to setup an FHB Alert each time I want to get the notification?

Not always. Some FHB Alerts are setup as recurring notifications. This means that you will receive a notification each time the activity or transaction occurs, such as “Notify me if my account balances go above or below a pre-selected amount.” Some FHB Alerts are setup as one-time events, such as “Notify me when check #5735 is paid.” The one-time alerts will have to be setup each time you want to be notified of that occurrence.
