If you have an auto signature added to all of your texts, the Mobile Banking system will receive those characters and will try to make sense of them.

The signal display on the mobile device is an indication of its ability to place calls. The Mobile Banking website requires a data network (internet connection) to perform data exchanges. The problem you described could be due to lack of signal or due to no data connection on the mobile device. Please contact your wireless service provider for assistance.
36. What happens if I lose communication/signal during a transaction?
If you do not receive a confirmation message due to a lost signal, you may verify a transaction by reviewing your transaction in Mobile Banking or in Online Banking.
