Social Media Guidelines

Here at Peoples Bank, we try to put exceptional in everything we do, especially when it comes to you. We created our Peoples Bank Social Media Pages to be a place where the people of our community gather together online, share ideas, exchange insights, inspire, learn more about money and banking, and enjoy getting to know each other and what makes our community so special. Pages are monitored by bank representatives Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., except on federal holidays.

We are grateful for your participation. We want all users to be considerate of others, protect private information, be of age, and prevent spam posts or comments. Please be aware of a few standard rules to help make your experience a truly exceptional one:
