Important Customer Notice

We are aware of a processing issue affecting some customer accounts. This may result in duplicate transactions from July 2 and July 3, which could impact available balances, debit card purchases, or ATM withdrawals. Our provider is actively working to resolve the issue. At this time, we do not have an updated timeline, but all affected transactions are expected to be corrected during end-of-day processing on Monday. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We will share updates as they become available.
