I want to personally let you know that we at Citizens Bank understand coronavirus (“COVID – 19”) is creating concern and uncertainty regarding the health and safety of our families and communities.
Recently, I was asked what advice I would give my 20 year-old self. Philosophically, I thought things such as you will make mistakes and everything will be alright, or you won’t have all the answers. Practically, I thought. “Start saving NOW.”
As the COVID-19 Coronavirus advances and with flu season in full swing, area citizens concerned about catching or spreading a virus don’t necessarily have to go to the bank to complete their banking.
Instead of having to physically make the trip to the branch, Citizens Bank offers customers the opportunity to use online and digital services, through which they have the ability to handle their banking needs whenever and wherever they want.
Join us for this week's podcast where Sandy Starnes, Director of Marketing, and Sarah Lane, Chief Retail Officer, sit down to discuss the recent title transition from "Teller" to "Banker." You won't want to miss this one!
