Bank Account Switch Kit
Changing banks is not easy, which is why we offer an account Switch Kit that makes it easy to move your accounts to First Port City Bank. The Switch Kit is designed to help you organize all the information you need when opening a new account with us and close your old accounts at another financial institution.
*We also offer forms to help set up direct deposits to your new account and online bill payments.
When you are ready to make the switch, you can visit one of our branch locations.
Remember when opening your new account, you will need:
Government Issued Identification
One form of a valid, current government-issued photo identification (such as a driver’s license, state-issued ID, or passport) and
Additional Form of Identification
One other form of identification with your name on it such as a credit or debit card.
