Randolph customers, we are having sporadic issues receiving and making phone calls in our Randolph location due to technical difficulties with Century Link. If you are unable to reach our Randolph office, please call the Cozad office at 1-308-784-2000 and you will be put in contact with our Randolph Staff.

🚨 FRAUD ALERT 🚨
Scammers are using AI, voice cloning, and phone number spoofing to target bank customers.
Homestead Bank will never call you to ask for your account number, PIN, password, or security codes.
If you receive a call, even if it is not suspicious:
• Hang up immediately.
• Call your local Homestead Bank branch using a trusted phone
number and talk to someone you know.
• Never use a call back feature as the number may have been spoofed
• Never share personal or banking information over the phone.
When in doubt, hang up and come talk to us directly. Stay safe!
