Is the PTSB Support Chat service secure?

The Support Chat service is fully secure. This is because when you use it, you are logged in to our mobile banking app which uses the highest level of Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to securely store, transmit and protect your personal information and data.

It is still important that you never share anything private such as your internet password or personal banking information.
