Why You Should Keep Your Personal Information Up to Date

 

At Farmers & Merchants Bank, we’re dedicated to providing the hometown service you’ve come to know and trust. One of the easiest ways to ensure we can continue serving you effectively is by keeping your personal information current.

Updating Your Information Matters

Keeping your details up to date helps us:

• Communicate important updates and alerts.
• Protect your accounts and prevent fraud.
• Process transactions smoothly.
• Ensure your account ownership and beneficiary designations reflect your wishes.

 

Take a few moments to review the following:

Contact Information

Verify that your phone number, email address, and mailing address are correct so we can reach you when needed.

Beneficiary Details

Life events, like tying the knot, the birth of a child, divorce, and even the loss of a loved one, can affect who you want designated as a beneficiary. Review and update these details as needed.

Account Information

Check joint account holders, authorized users, and linked accounts. Major life changes, like a move or job change, are a good reminder to review your accounts.

Identification Documents

If your government-issued ID has expired or changed (for example, due to a name change), make sure you provide the updated documents.

How to Update Your Information

Updating your information is simple. You can either visit your nearest branch with valid identification or contact our customer service team at 800-695-2045.

Keeping your personal account information accurate helps protect your assets, ensures your wishes are honored, and allows FMB to provide uninterrupted service. Take a few minutes today to review your details so you’ll stay protected and prepared for tomorrow.
