Welcome First Community Bank of East Tennessee Customers

Together for Better

 

What You Need to Know:

 
As you may have already heard, on October 1, 2025, First Community Bank of East Tennessee became a part of the TruPoint Bank family. Like First Community Bank of East Tennessee, TruPoint Bank has a community banking tradition that sets us apart from other financial institutions.  We are excited for you to experience what makes TruPoint Bank your Single Point For Banking!  
 

Our priority throughout this transition is you – our customer.  Below are a few things to know right now!


Mobile app users will need to download the TruPoint Bank mobile app from the Google Play or App Store on or after December 8, 2025, to access your online banking. The First Community Bank of East Tennessee mobile app will no longer work after this date. 
 
Login Details:
 
You will use the username and password you currently use, to sign into the TruPoint Bank online banking and mobile app. To ensure a smooth transition to your new app, please ensure you know your login credentials prior to December 8th. 
 
Once you've signed in, a verification code will be sent as a text message to the mobile phone number you input at that time. You'll then be prompted to enter the verification code sent to you. 
 
After entering your verification code, you'll be prompted to follow the instructions on the screen to enable 2- step verification as an added layer of security to your account. 
 
Next, you'll be prompted to create a 4-digit passcode for added convenience. This will make future logins simple and secure.
 
Once this is complete, you're ready to begin using your new TruPoint Bank Online Banking and Mobile App!
 
Our dedicated team is here to help each step of the way! If you have any questions, please contact your local office. 

Beginning December 5, 2025, the iTalk telephone banking system will be unavailable. You may begin using TruPoint Bank's 24 hour Telebanker system, by calling 888-419-4222.
