Important Notice
FDIC Insurance: In Georgia, branches operating under the United Bankshares name are in fact United Bank branches. It is important for you to know that United Bank is one bank regardless of whether you maintain your account at a United Bank branch outside of Georgia or at a United Bankshares branch within Georgia. Specifically, for purposes of your FDIC insurance coverage, United Bank and its United Bankshares branches in Georgia are viewed together as a single bank. If you hold one or more accounts maintained at a United Bank branch outside of Georgia and you also hold one or more accounts maintained at a United Bankshares branch within Georgia, all of these accounts are seen as being held at a single bank and are restricted to the standard insurance amount of $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. All deposits will continue to be FDIC-insured up to the maximum amount allowed. In addition, for six months after the transition, your accounts with Piedmont Bank will be insured separately from any you may have with United.
For more information on FDIC insurance, please call 877.ASK.FDIC.
