Staying Safe
Online Banking & Shopping Safely
Use it with confidence, and know exactly what your bank will and will not ask you.
What we cover
Getting set up, reading a statement, spotting a fake bank message, and the one rule about one-time codes that stops most account takeovers. Also: buying online safely and what to do about a charge you do not recognise.

Cautious beginners
How our classes work
- Small groups, so you can actually ask your question.
- Bring your own device — we work on your phone or laptop, not a demo one.
- Nothing is assumed. If a word needs explaining, we explain it.
- No selling. If you don't need something, we'll tell you.
- Come with a friend — book their seat too.
None of these dates work?
We run this for groups on request — libraries, offices, churches, senior centers. Tell us roughly when and we’ll sort a date.
