Testimonials

Michael Elizabeth Howard
I have been a customer of Peoples Bank & Trust for the majority of my life. They have always been wonderful, but they continue to improve and evolve even past the incredible service they have always provided. Most recently, I had the pleasure of working with Luanne and the loan team on a custom home build, and the experience could not have been any easier. Everyone here is so helpful, so accessible and so willing to answer any questions. I can't say enough wonderful things about PB&T! Customer for life!
Tyrone Lucas

Hometown bank with personal care and concern. Not one of the big box, corporate banks so prevalent today.
Kelley Kennebeck
I have been banking with Peoples bank over 10 years. My grandparents, parents, friends, and family all bank with Peoples!! For me, I trust banking with Peoples and value the friendly, small-town atmosphere which is hard to find anywhere else. Easy transactions and I’ve never had an issue! Would highly recommend People’s bank!
