The OCC's Major Disaster News Center is a repository of disaster-related information for national banks and federal savings associations, their customers, and other regulatory agencies.
The OCC is working cooperatively with all of the state and federal banking agencies and other organizations to support consumers and regulated institutions in the affected areas. If you have questions concerning the operations of your financial institution, please call your financial institution or visit your financial institution's website. Customers with questions regarding national banks and federal savings associations that cannot be resolved through the financial institution should contact the OCC's Customer Assistance Group at (800) 613-6743, or by completing the online Customer Complaint Form.
