Brandon McDaniel
Peoples Bank and Trust is the perfect name for this establishment. Every person I have ever spoken with here has been kind, friendly, respectful, and very trust worthy . My Entire family has trusted peoples bank for many years with anything from savings accounts to Vehicle & construction loans. If your just looking to open your first checking/savings account or even get a loan of any type I would recommend going in and having a sit down with these nice folks before looking elsewhere. They will work hard to help you with your specific Needs.

Amazing experience! Mrs. Anita provided the good ole southern hospitality that I love so much! Such a sweet lady! She was friendly, kind and approachable. Answered all my questions and help me with issues. I could rave on and on about her. Just a naturally sweet lady that you love to be in company of. With such talent, no wonder why the bank still exists. People often go where they feel welcome. And she definitely extends the invitation.
