New Federal regulations now require customers to Opt-In for overdraft protection on their ATM and everyday debit card transactions.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OVERDRAFTS & OVERDRAFT FEES:
There is a scam going around where someone is pretending that your bank card has had fraudulent transactions come through. They then ask that you enter your card number and PIN number. Please be aware that Porter Bank will NEVER ask you for your PIN Number. We do not have that knowledge, nor should we. If you do think that you may have been scammed, please call the bank immediately! If it is after bank hours, please call 1-800-264-4274, option 3.

Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan and Lincoln in 2010!
The United States Mint has begun releasing new dollar coins honoring our nation's Presidents. The coins feature the image of each President in the order that they served. The reverse of each coin features a design of the Statue of Liberty. The outer edge of the coin is inscribed with the phrases, "E Pluribus Unum" and "In God We Trust." The edges also have the year of minting and the mint mark.
Porter Bank is proud to be carrying these special coins. They are available individually or in rolls of $25. We also are carrying a Presidential Dollar Coin Album that is just $6.99 (plus tax)! Come in and take a look at this album that has room for all of the Presidential Coins!
