CLIENT AUTHENTICATION

BCM One will request a list from the client of authorized individuals who may request Technical Support or request information related to the account. In the event of the Administrative authorized contact needing to be changed, the request must be submitted via fax and on be on company letterhead.

Clients calling BCM One’s 24-hour support center can discuss their services and billings with a BCM One representative once that representative has verified the caller’s identity. There are three (3) methods by which BCM One will authenticate the identity of the caller:

  • confirming a pre-established password and/or PIN;
  • with an immediate call back to the telephone number associated with the services purchased; or
  • by mailing the requested documents to the client’s address of record.

Passwords and/or PINs should not be any portion of the person’s social security number, mother’s maiden name, telephone number associated with the client’s account or any pet name. In the event the caller fails to remember their password and/or PIN, BCM One will ask the caller a series of questions known only to the caller and BCM One in order to authenticate the caller. In such an instance, the caller will then be required to establish a new password/PIN.

Calls to open a trouble-ticket because of out-of-service conditions will not require the above-mentioned Authorized Contact authentication.

The client is responsible for maintaining and updating the Authorized Contacts list. BCM One will not be responsible for notifications missed due to out-of-date Authorized Contact information.
