A Message to our customers about the Home Depot data breach

I regret to inform you that the Bill Pay, Mobile Banking and Mobile Check Deposit conversion, scheduled to begin on June 6^th must be rescheduled. 

AMONG 32 BANKS AND CREDIT UNIONS TO RECEIVE AMERICA SAVES DESIGNATION OF SAVINGS EXCELLENCE

Dean Bank has received and returned a number of counterfeit Treasurer's Checks as well as Money Orders from financial institutions in Arkansas, South Carolina and Ohio. We'd like our customers, local businesses and financial institutions that may have received them to know that they are not legitimate financial instruments and you should contact the proper authorities right away should you have one presented.

A few months ago I announced we’d be converting our Bill Payment solution, as well as our Mobile Banking and Mobile Check Deposit applications.  I’m confident that the issues discovered in late May, which delayed the conversion to our new electronic banking platform, have been resolved and we are ready to move ahead.  We will begin the electronic banking services conversion on Tuesday September 19^th and finish on Thursday September 21^st.

I’m pleased to announce that our entirely new Bill Pay, Mobile Banking and Mobile Check Deposit products are operational.

In last month’s President’s Message, I mentioned that our Main Office will be undergoing an ambitious expansion / modernization very soon.  The project plan calls for multiple phases and Phase One is about to begin.  I wanted to let our customers know that a construction start date of March 9^th has been finalized and inform you of some of the changes that will be occurring over the first 30 days or so.

Community Banking Month: An Important Celebration

I hope your summer travels have been safe and you’ve taken Dean Bank along to ensure reliable Debit Card processing as well as access to your account information through the mobile device of your choice.

As we look forward with anticipation to the warmer weather, longer days and outdoor activities, it’s notable that Dean Bank along with our fellow community banks nationwide commemorate the month of April as “Community Banking Month”.

Summer is here and with it comes vacation travel. Over the years we've had many customers ask for suggestions about safeguarding access to their accounts, whether out of state or out of the country. I'd like to share some of the helpful suggestions our staff has compiled. From all of us here at Dean Bank, we wish you safe travels this summer!

I hope your summer travels have been safe so far and you’ve taken Dean Bank along to ensure reliable Debit Card processing and access to your account information through your mobile device of choice.

Dean Bank President’s Message August, 2016   Although the summer is still in full swing, thoughts of “back to school” and “hurricane season” loom large in the back of my mind.  I hope your summer travels have been safe and you’ve allowed Dean Bank to ensure reliable Debit Card processing by notifying us when you intend to be out of the New England area.  

2018 is off to a fast start and our staff has been working hard; implementing the new technology we’ve recently rolled out while getting ready to do more to improve your experience with us.

The year 2019 marks the 130^th anniversary of Dean Bank but don’t expect a lot of fanfare over this anniversary.  It’s just another year in the history of an organization dedicated to the success of our customers.

If you were to ask a random person: “what first comes to mind when you think of an important date in May”?  The most likely response might be Mother’s Day or Memorial Day!  Here at Dean Bank it’s “New Year’s Day”!  April 30 ended the bank’s fiscal year and May 1 began a new one.

On June 6th – June 8th Dean Bank will be converting its Bill Payment solution, as well as its Mobile Banking and Mobile Check Deposit applications.
