A: Yes, you have access to your account information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Q: Who will be able to access the company’s accounts?
A: A company official with account signing authority will designate a Company Primary Administrator for TSB Cash Management. This individual will have total access to the system, and will have the ability to set up other users. For security purposes, each additional user can have full or limited access and authority based on the company’s discretion and depending on the user’s responsibilities.

Q: How do users access TSB Cash Management?
A: The system is accessible through the TSB web site, www.tsbawake24.com. Each user will have a unique User ID and Password that is needed to access accounts. The Company Primary Administrator is able to add and delete users at any time. A Secondary Administrator can also be designated as backup to the Primary Administrator. The Secondary Administrator has all the same access capabilities as the Primary Administrator, except the Secondary Administrator can not create or change other Administrator profiles.

Q: I have both business accounts and personal accounts; can I transfer between them?
A: If your business has its own tax ID number, (TIN), then you cannot transfer between your business and personal accounts.  Banking regulations prevent the Bank from allowing this type of transaction.  You can, however, use online bill payment to solve this problem.  As a person, you can pay your business; and your business can pay you as a person.

Q: If I own more than one company with different tax ID numbers, can I set them all up under one TSB Cash Management account?
A: Accounts linked to a TSB Cash Management account must all have the same tax ID number.

Q: What types of accounts can I access through TSB Cash Management?
A: You can link any business checking, savings, money market, CD and most business loans and lines of credit accounts. For loan accounts, you can view information and make payments.

Q: How many accounts can I set up to access through TSB Cash Management?
A: You must designate one primary business checking account as your main account, and can add up to 29 additional qualified accounts.

Q: Can I assign "nicknames" to my business accounts linked to TSB Cash Management?
A: Yes, you can name your accounts in a manner that allows you to easily identify them. In fact, this is encouraged since certain applications generate email confirmation messages back to the company and reference the account by the account description or "nickname" assigned.

Electronic Bill Payment

Q: How do I apply for the TSB Cash Management Bill Pay Service?
A: You can only apply online via the TSB Cash Management system once you have discussed the Bill Pay service with a TSB representative, have initiated the Cash Management application, have been approved for TSB Cash Management and have logged on for the first time.

Q: After I have applied online for Bill Payment, how long is it before I can pay a bill?
A: Once you have completed the online Bill Pay registration form within TSB Cash Management, it takes about one to three business days to be approved and gain access to Bill Pay. Please contact our Customer Service Center at 800-246-2009 if you do not have access to Bill Pay service after three business days.

Q: How long does it take to set up a new payee in the Bill Pay system?
A: It takes just a few minutes. Once you have entered a new payee into the Electronic Bill Payment System, you may enter a payment to your new payee immediately.

Q: When and how are my payments actually processed?
A: Payments are processed on the day designated by you. The payment date (the day designated by you) is the date the payment is to be sent to the payee and not the date the payment is due.  Metavante, our bill payment processor, generates the payment by either a paper check or an electronic credit based on what type of payments the financial institution receiving the payment accepts. All payments can be viewed in View Payments and they will appear as pending, in process or sent.

Q: After I make a bill payment, how long does it take for the money to be debited from my account?
A: Your checking account will be electronically debited within two business banking days of the payment date you select.

Q: How long does it take for a payment to reach the payee?
A: A payment that generates an electronic payment will take approximately 4 business days from the scheduled payment date to reach the payee. If the payee is unable to accept electronic payments, please allow 5-10 business days from the scheduled payment date for check payments to be received. Your payee list will display what payment form (check or electronic) the payee accepts.

Q: How do I actually use the Electronic Bill Payment System?
A: Step-by-step instructions can be accessed by selecting the Help button within Bill Pay in TSB Cash Management.

Q: What happens if I make a payment and there are insufficient funds in my account?
A: If a 'non-sufficient funds' (NSF) condition exists, the debit will be returned via banking channels. The payment return will prompt the system to block your Bill Payment account, preventing you from making more bill payments until the NSF condition is resolved. Any future dated recurring payments scheduled for release during the time the account is blocked will not be sent. You may also be charged the standard NSF or returned check fee.

Q: How can I verify that a payment has been made or cancel a payment?
A: You may go into the View Payments screen to view, edit or delete a payment. View Payments displays the status of all bill payments. If your payment has a status of "pending" you may edit or delete that payment. If you need to cancel a payment that has a status of "sent" – meaning it has already been transmitted – please contact Metavante Bill Payment Customer Service at 1-800-823-7555.

Q: I noticed that a payee address has changed. Why is that?
A: Payees supply an updated address to Metavante after a payment is received. When this happens, the address is automatically updated in the Payee Administration area.

Q: Who do I contact if my bill was not paid?
A: Please contact Metavante’s Bill Payment Customer Service Department at 1-800-823-7555 to verify where the payment was sent and when. You'll need the confirmation number of the payment (this can be found in the View Payments section of Bill Payment), payee name and your Bill Payment identification number.

Q: How far back can I view my Bill Pay history?
A: At least twelve months of bill payment history can be viewed online via TSB Cash Management. Our bill payment processor, Metavante, maintains payment history for up to seven years.
