The health and safety of our customers and our employees are very important to us. As you all know, there has been an increase in COVID-19 cases within our communities. As a result, our management team has made the decision to close all of our lobbies until further notice. Our drive-thrus will remain open and will maintain normal business hours which are Monday – Friday 8am until 5pm. If you need to make special arrangements to handle your banking needs please call any of our office locations.
We encourage you to take advantage of all of our digital products as well as telephone banking. We have ATM's available at all of our locations and also on Battle Street in Talladega.
We will continue to post updates to our website as well as to our social media pages. Thank you for your loyalty to First Bank of Alabama. Where You Are First!
A note from our President and CEO, Chad Jones:
For more than 172 years, First Bank of Alabama has lived by core values (Service, Excellence, Community). These enduring values guide us as we face the difficult challenge of responding to the coronavirus (COVID-19), which the World Health Organization declared a pandemic and now a National Emergency declared by President Trump.

Steps you can take

Follow these everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, as outlined by the CDC:
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
Stay home when you are not feeling well.
Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw the tissue in the trash and wash your hands.
Beware of scams. Look out for suspicious email and text messages, medical supply scams, and fraudulent donation sites that may impersonate a company, charity, or government agency. The intent is to convince you to share sensitive information such as usernames and passwords, make purchases or donations on spoof websites, or download malware onto your device by opening a malicious attachment. If you receive a suspicious email or text message, don't respond, click on any links, or open attachments. Verify the authenticity of any website before making a purchase or donation.
