This week the IRS began making the economic stimulus payments through direct deposit.

If you filed a Federal Tax Return in 2018 or 2019 and received your tax refund via direct deposit, your stimulus payment will be deposited directly to your bank account the IRS has on file.

If you filed a Federal Tax Return in 2018 or 2019 but have not set up direct deposit with the IRS, you can submit your direct deposit information to the IRS now to get your Economic Impact Payment deposited directly into your bank account.  Click “Get My Payment” through the following link: https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment

If you don’t usually file a tax return, you can submit your information to the IRS to get the Economic Impact Payment. Click “Get Started” through the following link: https://www.freefilefillableforms.com/#/fd/EconomicImpactPayment

Additionally, we will ensure that stimulus payments are credited to your account the day in which they are received.  These economic payments are to benefit you, our customer, which is why you will never see us using any of the proceeds to satisfy debt obligations.  The full amount of these payments will be added directly to your current available deposit account balance in order for you to choose how you would like to use it.

If you are current Coastal Heritage Bank loan customer experiencing a hardship or have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, please reach out to us and we will respond to your inquiry as quickly as possible:

Personal or Home Loans: 800-695-1300 or email us at [javascript protected email address]

Commercial Loans: 800-695-1300 or contact your loan officer directly.

To enhance your digital banking experience, we want to let you know about a few things we’ve been working on and remind you of some options that we have available.

Online Banking Updates During COVID-19

To help promote social distancing and limit your need to leave your home, we’ve made the following enhancements for your convenience:

To provide customers the ability to transfer money from a savings account to another account or to third parties by pre-authorized, automatic, telephone or computer transfers, we are temporarily waiving all charges in the event you make more than 6 in a statement period.

To allow customers to maximize the ability to make check deposits through mobile devices, the bank is raising the deposit limit from $5,000 per day to $10,000.

Don’t Forget – Online Bill-Pay

Take advantage of online bill payments through Internet Banking!

Don’t Forget – Debit Card Monitoring

Control your Debit MasterCard^® anytime, anywhere with the free Card Valet app. You’ll have the flexibility to manage and monitor your card account to help prevent fraud, receive alerts, set spending limits and geographic restrictions.

• Manage account restrictions for location, merchants, spending limits and types of transactions such as in-store or online purchases
• Control spending by setting dollar limits and geographical restrictions
• Receive alerts for your cards, including dependent cards
• Monitor your account conveniently and securely
• Protect against ATM fraud by disabling/enabling transactions when needed
• Block merchant types
• Disable/Enable your card in between purchases
• Disable e-commerce purchases if you don’t shop online
• Set monthly or per transaction amount spending limits

Fraud Text Messaging

Occasionally you may receive text messages from Coastal Heritage Bank asking for you to authenticate a specific transaction. These transaction alerts are generated when there is eCommerce activity that may not align with your spending patterns. Please respond to these text alerts to let us know whether or not the transaction in question is valid. This process helps protect customers and the Bank from potential fraud.

Branch Lobbies Remain Closed

We have determined that closing our branch lobbies until further notice allows us to implement social distancing to reduce the risk of spreading the virus to our customers and branch employees.

ATM’s & Drive-Up Windows Open

Teller transactions can be conducted at our ATM’s 24 hours a day and our drive-up windows during our regular business hours. Drive-up employees are required to sanitize between transactions. ATM’s are sanitized regularly throughout the day. Customers who require an in-person meeting to complete a transaction, such as a loan closing or to access a safe deposit box may do so by Branch appointment only. Please call 800-695-1300 if you need to schedule a Branch appointment.

We will continue to closely monitor the situation and evaluate additional measures to support our customers and communities as needed. Should you find yourself in need of assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

The safety and well-being of our customers and our employees is our top priority. We will continue to provide you with updates as we monitor the development of the COVID-19 Coronavirus and adapt as new information becomes available. We have adjusted our services to mitigate the risk of spreading the virus. Here is what you need to know:
