ANB and United Community will be joining forces in order to deliver the same personalized care you enjoy today, with the added benefit of expanded services to meet your needs, goals, and aspirations. You will continue to enjoy the same convenience and service from the team of bankers you know and trust, at the same locations.

ANB’s operating system will be fully integrated into United’s the weekend of July 12. As a result, the accounts and services you have with ANB will undergo some changes. Effective July 14, all of your accounts and services will be subject to the Terms and Conditions.

More than anything, we are working to ensure these changes are as seamless as possible.

American National Bank will begin operating under the United Community name, with a full transition on July 14. The United and ANB teams will work diligently in the background to make this transition as seamless as possible for you. 

United Community is a top 100 US financial institution with $27.9 billion in assets as of March 31, 2025, that, through its subsidiaries, provides a full range of banking, wealth management, and mortgage services.

Yes, the bankers you know and trust are committed to assisting you through this system integration, and will continue to do so after this transition. Your banker is backed by a team of professionals that have a high commitment to customer service and local relationships. 

Yes, you will continue to enjoy the same convenience and service from the team of professionals you know and trust, at the same locations you use today.

Yes, beginning Monday, July 14, you may conduct transactions at all of United’s branch, ATM, and Interactive Teller Machine (ITM) locations throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Plus, United Community is a member of the Publix Presto! ATM network where customers can enjoy free access to over 1,260 ATMs all across the Southeast. Visit ucbi.com/locations for a complete list of United’s locations. 

An Interactive Teller Machine, or ITM for short, combines the convenience of an ATM with the award-winning service delivered by friendly, knowledgeable United employees. Physically, the machine looks similar to an ATM, but it has video capabilities that allow you to interact with a teller. Interactive Tellers can help you conduct more transactions than basic ATMs and can answer different questions you might have about your finances or a particular transaction. All this without having to wait in line at the branch.

United ITMs still offer the functionality of an ATM, where customers can simply withdraw cash, view account balances, and perform other basic ATM transactions.

An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough money in your account to cover a transaction, but we pay it anyway. Effective Monday, July 14, United Community may cover your overdrafts in two different ways:

1. We have standard overdraft practices that come with qualifying accounts.
2. We also offer overdraft protection plans available for qualifying accounts, such as a link to a checking account, savings account, or line of credit, which may be less expensive than our standard overdraft practices. Please call or visit any of our locations to learn more.

Effective Monday, July 14, United Community may authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions for qualifying consumer accounts:

• Checks, ACH, and other transactions made using your checking account number
• Automatic bill payments

However, we will not authorize and pay overdrafts for the following types of transactions for qualifying consumer accounts unless you ask us to:

• ATM transactions
• Everyday debit card transactions

We pay overdrafts at our discretion, which means we do not guarantee that we will always authorize and pay any type of transaction. If we do not authorize and pay an overdraft, your transaction will be declined.

Additional details, including information about fees associated with standard overdraft practices, can be found in the Terms and Conditions. 

Yes, we may, at our discretion, authorize and pay overdrafts on your ATM and everyday debit card transactions if you authorize us to do so. You may opt in to Courtesy Overdraft with ATM and Debit Card Coverage beginning Monday, July 14, online at ucbi.com/courtesy or by contacting your banker, calling us at 1-800-UCBANK1, or visiting any United Community location.

Yes, any automatic transfers from deposit accounts or lines of credit that are set up on your United Community accounts for overdraft purposes will continue. Please refer to the Terms and Conditions for additional information about overdraft options and fees.

Yes, you have a six-month grace period to restructure accounts. Under FDIC rules, for at least six months after the May 1, 2025 merger date, your ANB accounts are separately insured from any accounts you may already have at United Community. This grace period gives you the opportunity to restructure accounts, if necessary.

Following the initial six-month period, checking and savings accounts will be insured as United Community, but Certificates of Deposit may continue to be insured separately for a longer period as described below.

Certificates of Deposit will be insured separately until the first maturity date after the end of the six-month grace period. Separate coverage may be extended based on opening and renewal dates, maturity dates, and varying terms or amounts.

The basic FDIC insurance amount is $250,000 for each depositor at each bank. If you have money in both banks, so long as your combined total (including accrued interest) is $250,000 or less, all your money is fully protected.

Even if the merger results in you having more than $250,000 in the combined deposits, you may still be fully insured. First, remember that deposits you hold in different “ownership categories”—such as joint, single, and retirement accounts—are separately insured up to $250,000. That means, for example, that after the merger, you could have up to $250,000 in single accounts and up to $250,000 in your portion of joint accounts and still be fully insured. 

If you have questions about your deposit insurance, please contact us, or you can call the FDIC at 1-877-ASK-FDIC and ask to speak to a deposit insurance specialist.
