At Prairie State Bank & Trust, your safety and the security of your financial information are our highest priorities. We want to make you aware of an ongoing scam where fraudsters are spoofing our 1-800 number and posing as Prairie State Bank & Trust employees. These callers claim there is fraudulent activity on your account or debit card and then attempt to collect sensitive personal or financial information.

As back-to-school season kicks off, many families are preparing for big changes — whether it's sending a child off to college, starting a new job in a new city, or simply managing life on the go. But while a new chapter might mean new routines, one thing should always stay the same: trusted, reliable banking. That’s why we created our Bank Anywhere Checking Account — the perfect companion for students, young adults, or anyone who needs the freedom to manage their finances wherever life takes them.

We want to make our customers aware of a recent issue that may have affected email alerts tied to your Prairie State Bank & Trust accounts. Between Thursday, July 17 and today, some customers may not have received their usual email alerts or notifications, as these messages may have been quarantined or blocked by certain email providers.

We’re excited to introduce some powerful new features in our mobile app and online banking platform! We believe managing your finances should be both simple and secure, which is why we've made it easier than ever to take control of your accounts—whether you’re at home or on the go.

It is our pleasure to introduce the Prairie State Bank & Trust community to Jason Burgener, our new Savoy, Mattoon, Charleston & surrounding area's Treasury Sales Officer!
