What should I do if I can’t access my account(s)?  

We’re sorry you’re having trouble accessing your account.
Try the following tips: 

• Disconnect from any virtual private network (VPN) you may be using and use only Wi-Fi or mobile data. Some VPNs may block or interfere with access.  
• Try logging in from a different device such as your phone, tablet, or another computer.  
• Clear your browser cache and cookies:  
  • For Chrome/Edge: Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete, select “All time,” and clear cache and cookies.  
  • For Safari: Go to Settings > Clear History and Website Data. 
• After clearing your cache, close and reopen your browser and try to sign in again.  

If you still cannot access your account after trying these steps, please contact us for help.  

Why can’t I see all of my accounts?

Once you’re logged in, select the orange button labeled “Access my other accounts" that appears at the bottom of the account selection screen. That will redirect you to the new my account portal where you can view "Service accounts" under the "Accounts" dropdown in the top menu. 

Once you're in the new my account portal there's two scenarios to review. 

• Scenario 1: If you don’t see all your accounts, you may need to link existing accounts by adding a portfolio. A portfolio is a set of one of more accounts. Watch the video below for more about portfolios and accounts.
• Scenario 2: If you can't add a new account to your profile, you may need to be added as a guest by the account owner. You can reach out to the account owner to resolve the issue or contact us for additional assistance. The role of account owner can be reassigned by calling 1-877-622-7683

 

How can I identify the account owner?
First, check with individuals within your business or organization that might have account owner details. You can also contact customer service at 1-877-622-7683 for more information, or to reassign the role of account owner.

What's the difference between portfolios and grouping accounts?

• Portfolios: Gain access to multiple authorized business portfolios under one user profile by connecting account information. 
• Grouping accounts: Group a subset of accounts and give others access to easily manage assigned groups.

What changes affect a My Account user profile that has multiple accounts?
First, identify your account owner. If you're the first to log in to the My Account profile, you'll be assigned as the account owner. The account owner can add guests and assign permissions. The role of account owner can be reassigned by calling 1-877-622-7683.

Will my payment methods be saved in My Account?
No, your previous saved billing and payment methods won’t carry over. When you’re ready to make an online payment, you’ll need to add and save a new payment method. Log in to My Account and navigate to Billing/Payment methods to update your information.

Will my auto bill pay payment information transfer to the new platform?
