I TRIED TO LOG IN AND IT'S NOT LETTING ME IN? WHAT'S WRONG?!

If you are having trouble with logging in for the first time, you may have inadvertently locked yourself out of your account. Let us help you get logged in and using the platform quickly. Reach out to us in one of the following ways, for assistance: Call the LLCU Member Solutions Center at 1-844-222-7788 Email us at llcu@llcu.org Live chat at www.llcu.org during normal business hours *PLEASE NOTE that we have been experiencing a high call volume during this switch over to the new platform. We will take all calls in the order in which they come in. We appreciate your patience during this time!

WHY CAN'T I "LINK" ALL OF MY LLCU ACCOUNTS ANYMORE IN ONLINE BANKING?

The new LLCU Online Banking platform does not contain the option to "link" accounts under ONE password. While this creates an extra step or two for you to log out and log in to other accounts, there's a good reason for it! This separation is actually a security enhancement.

Did you know that 6.85 million bank accounts are hacked every day, that is 158 accounts every SECOND? One way to avoid that is to minimize your risk and exposure. This extra step in our online banking will help you to just that.

Consider this scenario...if a hacker was able to get in to your LLCU online banking and you had linked accounts, they would be able to access ALL of your accounts. This puts you at a greater risk, as well as any joint account holder you may have.

We know it takes a few extra seconds to login and logout of your other accounts, but we want to protect you and your assets. Please note, you are still able to transfer from one account to another with ease.

WHEN DID IT SWITCH TO THE NEW LLCU ONLINE BANKING?

The new and improved LLCU Online Banking (desktop version) became available for LLCU members who were already enrolled in LLCU Online Banking prior to this newer version, on Monday, December 7th, 2020 at 6:00a.m. CT.  The new LLCU Mobile Banking App became available for LLCU members who were already enrolled prior to this new version, on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020 at 8:00a.m. CT.

WILL MY CURRENT LLCU MOBILE APP STILL WORK FOR THIS NEW UPGRADE?

If you already had previously downloaded the LLCU Mobile Banking App prior to this upgrade on your device (prior to 11/30/20), you will see a notification for a software update on your device once the new LLCU Mobile Banking App is available. 

To download the app for the first time, simply visit your Google Play or Apple Store and search, “Land of Lincoln Credit Union” and download the free App. You’ll be able to complete first-time login for current users and new user enrollment from your device.

WILL THIS UPGRADE TO THE NEW LLCU ONLINE BANKING AFFECT MY BILLPAY IN ANY WAY?

No, this upgrade will not affect your current BillPay settings. All previously scheduled payments and recurring payments will process as usual. All payments scheduled will transition over to the new platform.

WILL THIS CONVERSION AFFECT QUICKBOOKS & QUICKEN USERS?

Please take action to ensure a smooth transition.
