Transaction history and eStatements are available for 24 months from the date of enrollment forward within Online Banking.
There are several ways to enroll in Online Banking. A simple way would be starting on ucbi.com/login. Under Select Online Enrollment, choose Personal or Business and accept the terms and agreement. Next, click "Enroll Now" and fill out the enrollment form. Upon submitting the enrollment form, you should be prompted with the Login ID you select and then asked to select a target device for receiving your Secure Access Code (SAC). Once you enter your SAC, you will be prompted to set your new password.
United Community Bank maintains rigorous security standards and procedures regarding unauthorized access to customer information. We allow the customer to choose their own unique Login ID and Password that identify the customer when logging on to Online Banking. The customer is required to select a target which will be their phone number as a call or text to receive a Secure Access Code (SAC). You will then enter the code on the Secure Access Code screen to gain access to Online Banking. In relation to technology, United uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for transferring data and the highest type of encryption 128bit. SSL is the technology used to make sure that users establish sessions only with secure Internet sites. It protects data with (1) authentication, which ensures that the customer is actually communicating with the bank and not someone impersonating the bank, (2) encryption, the scrambling of transferred data so that account information cannot be intercepted and read by a third party and (3) data integrity, the verification that the information sent by the customer to the bank has not been altered during the transfer.

Your security is our top priority. But we need your help.
To ensure that your financial information is secure whenever you use the Internet, we’re asking you to take a few minutes right now to make sure you’re using the most current version of your Web browser. That’s because the browser—the software application that lets you surf the Web—also plays a huge role in protecting you and the data you choose to share when you’re online. The most common browsers are Microsoft Internet Explorer®, Mozilla Firefox®, Google Chrome™ and Safari®.
As online fraud and theft evolves, browsers must become more secure with each new version. That’s why companies that provide Web browsers continually release patches to stay one step ahead of fraudsters. So it’s vital that individual users, like you, routinely apply the upgrades to stay protected-on your smartphone, tablet and computer.
Always using a current Web browser is vital to keeping the information you share and the sites you visit secure. This includes the financial information you view and exchange while using Online Banking. Knowing you’re using the most current version is one of the best ways to give yourself peace of mind.
There are many versions in use today that provide adequate protection. If you’re using any of these you’re in great shape:
Android Mobile Operating System (OS): version 5.0 (Lollipop) and higher are supported
Microsoft Internet Explorer® 11.0 or higher supported only through January 14, 2020. Please update your browser before that time for a secure online banking experience.
Microsoft Edge: all versions supported
Google Chrome™ 38.0 or higher
Mozilla Firefox® 27 or higher
Apple Desktop Safari® version 7 and higher for OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and higher
Apple Mobile Safari® version 5 and higher for iOS 5 and higher
If you’re unsure which version you’re using, please refer to the browser identifier on our support page which displays the browser you are currently using to access this page. You may also check with the browser provider to make sure it’s current. To do this, simply visit the website of your preferred provider and navigate to their updates/patches.
If you have questions or need assistance updating your browser, please contact us during business hours at 1-800-822-2651.

Mobile Deposit
Yes. United Community Bank maintains rigorous security standards and we have measures set up to review and stop the deposit (at the mobile device) if we detect specific concerns related to fraud or potential threat to your account security.
United Community Mobile App users do not need to enroll in Mobile Deposit. If you already have the United Community Mobile App (and the account is designated as eligible) the Mobile Deposit function will automatically be activated and available the month following your enrollment and a deposit icon will automatically appear on the app screen.
Preparing to deposit a check using the Mobile Banking App is easy! Simply endorse the check in the specified area on the back of the check. The endorsement should be signed exactly as made out on the front. (For example, a check made out to ‘Johnny Smith’ should not be endorsed ‘John Smith.’)
Helpful tips:
- After taking a photo of the front and back of the check and verifying that it has been reviewed and accepted, you may want to date and write ‘Mobile Deposit’ on the front of the check to help you remember that the check has already been deposited.
- We suggest that you keep the check for 45 days at which point you can then safely destroy or shred it.
If a Mobile Deposit is rejected at the time a deposit is attempted, you will receive a message on your mobile device with a reason for the rejection. If a deposit is rejected in the processing stage, customers can contact Customer Support for verification.

No, the check has to go through a review and approval process before it goes into your account. If approved, it should go into your account the next business day as long as you made the deposit before 5:00pm.
Note: To help ensure a timely process, it is encouraged that checks requiring next day deposit be deposited at least 15 minutes prior to the 5:00pm cut off time. Some checks require longer to process, as such, some checks deposited too close to the 5:00pm deadline may not show up until some time after the following business day.
Every check deposited will be reviewed for accuracy of the endorsement and deposit amount. Your deposit will not appear in your transaction history while the deposit is pending. It will appear in the transaction history once it is accepted and available for withdrawal. Remember, it’s your responsibility to view the account deposit history to see if the deposit was accepted or rejected.
