How to Prepare for the System Enhancement
We recommend you take the following actions before September 16th to minimize disruption in your Peoples Bank accounts and services to ensure a smoother transition during the upcoming system enhancement.
- Be sure you know your online banking credentials.
- Download transaction history and eStatements ahead of time.
- Receive and keep new debit card safe.
- Prepare for limited account access: To avoid any inconvenience during the enhancement, we strongly recommend preparing alternative forms of payment, such as a credit card or cash. For Peoples Bank debit card holders, you will receive a new card prior to the enhancement, which you can activate on September 17th to use as your primary form of payment throughout the enhancement weekend.
- Verify your contact information: During the system enhancement, it’s critical that we can reach you with important updates. We will be communicating the progress of the system enhancement via email and on this page. Please take a moment at your earliest convenience to verify that we have your most current mailing address, telephone number, email address, and any seasonal contact information on file.
