LANDBANK branches nationwide remain open
Despite a sudden surge of COVID-19 cases in the country, Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) announced that its branches nationwide shall continue to operate to serve the banking needs of its customers. In a statement, the state-run Bank said a number of LANDBANK branches in the National Capital Region (NCR) and most parts of Luzon, where COVID-19 cases remain high, are open Mondays through Fridays from 8:30AM to 2:00PM, while LANDBANK branches in Visayas and Mindanao will continue to follow the regular banking hours of 8:30AM to 3:00PM on weekdays. However, some branches in NCR, Central Luzon and Southern Luzon are temporarily closed due to COVID-19 exposure of personnel and to give way to disinfection to ensure the health and safety of LANDBANK clients and employees. Meanwhile, the Bank's e-banking channels, such as the LANDBANK Mobile Banking App, iAccess, WeAccess, Link.BizPortal, Electronic Tax Payment System, Phone Access, and its ATM network, remain stable and available to the public 24/7.

Banking schedules of LANDBANK branches nationwide are also posted daily at the LANDBANK website, and at the Bank's official Facebook Page at @landbankofficial and Viber Community at @LANDBANK. With more Flipinos staying home as NCR and some parts of the country remain under Alert Level 3, LANDBANK once again reminded its customers to be cautious of online banking fraud and phishing activities. The Bank appealed to its clients to remain vigilant and ignore suspicious e-mails, text and social media messages, links and attachments from unknown senders. It also urged the public to be on the look-out for fake websites and social media accounts pretending to be LANDBANK by checking and verifying a suspicious site's URL, email address, social media account or phone number. Official LANDBANK representatives will never ask for a client's one-time passwords (OTPs), account details, and the card verification value (CVV) at the back of the card, among other security details, the Bank said.

The LANDBANK Candaba Agri-Hub is expected to provide banking, lending and agrarian services to local development players, including 22,011 farmers from Candaba’s 33 barangays including the adjacent towns of San Luis, Sta. Ana, and Arayat. As part of the Bank’s continuing thrust of expanding touchpoints in key strategic areas nationwide, the newest Agri-Hub will also complement seven existing LANDBANK Branches and 50 ATMs in Pampanga. Candaba Mayor Rene E. Maglanque, Vice Mayor Michael Dan V. Sagum, and LANDBANK Central Luzon Branches Group Head, Senior Vice President Sylvia C.
