According to the Federal Trade Commission, identity theft is the fastest-growing crime in the country. Our ability to feel safe is becoming more difficult with terrorism and crime on a steady increase.
The USA Patriot Act has paved the way for financial institutions to help prevent fraud, identity theft, and the spread of terrorism. It requires financial institutions to obtain more information from an individual or legal entity to help establish identity.
Your cooperation is needed when you open a new account or request a loan. You may be asked more questions to establish and confirm your identity. It may also be required for you to provide one or more forms of identification.
First Choice Community Bank (the Bank) respects the wishes of those customers and prospective customers who do not want to receive telephone solicitation calls from the Bank. The Bank maintains a list containing the telephone numbers and names (if provided) of those persons who have told the Bank that they do not want to receive telephone solicitation calls from the Bank. If you do not wish to receive solicitation calls from the Bank, you can ask us to place your telephone number on our “Do Not Call” list.
If you wish to be added to the Bank’s “Do Not Call” list, contact us in one of the following ways:
The request must provide the ten (10) digit telephone number that is not to be called and the person’s name, if desired. Once a request has been made, the Bank will add the telephone number and name (if provided) to our “Do Not Call” list within thirty (30) days. The Bank will maintain the telephone number and name (if provided) on its “Do Not Call” list for five (5) years, unless a request is made by the person to have the number removed. If a person’s telephone number changes, another request must be submitted to have the new number added to the Bank’s “Do Not Call” list.
Once your telephone number has been added to the Bank’s “Do Not Call” list, you may still be contacted for non-solicitation purposes. This type of contact could include surveys, billing resolution or other service related matters.
All employees that engage in outbound telephone solicitation are trained in this policy before they are allowed to place calls to consumers and subsequently on a periodic basis. Members of the Bank’s management team review this policy statement on a periodic basis.
The Bank intends to comply with all federal and state Do Not Call laws. If a consumer requests a copy of our “Do Not Call” policy, we will provide a copy via the United States Postal Service or by electronic mail. Any questions concerning the Bank’s “Do Not Call” list should be directed to:
