For the best experience when using PNC Online Banking, we recommend using the most up-to-date versions of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari.

Using beta versions or older versions of these browsers may result in limited functionality within the site.

To ensure your privacy, we recommend that you clear the Internet browser's cache and history after visiting any PNC web site. Internet browsing software, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari, stores or "caches" content of web sites visited during online sessions to display pages previously viewed more quickly. Additionally, the Internet browser's history list tracks web site addresses you visit. Clearing your browser's cache and history ensures that other people using the computer (particularly public computers) do not have access to your session information. View instructions for clearing your browser's cache.

Because each browser is different, we recommend utilizing the help menu located in the top navigation of your browser’s menu and searching for “clearing cookies” or “clear cache”.

PNC Mobile banking consists of four separate - but complementary – features that are available to those enrolled in PNC Online Banking: *

1. Mobile Banking Apps: An application that is downloaded and installed on your smartphone or mobile device. The Mobile Banking Apps support Android,™ iPhone / iPod touch / iPad, and Blackberry. The PNC Mobile App enables you to enjoy many of the time saving features available through Online Banking today, including: view account balances, pay bills, transfer funds, locate the nearest branch or ATM, view PNC Rewards and deposit checks (iOS and Android™ only). 
2. Text Message Alerts: Enables you to have your PNC Online Banking email alerts delivered to your mobile device as a text message. This service takes the email alerts currently available through Online Banking and converts them to a text message version so that you can receive alerts while on the go.
3. Text Message Banking: Provides the ability to send certain text message commands to PNCBNK (762265) to obtain account balances or view account activity history.
4. Mobile Web: Visit www.pnc.com right on your mobile device to view a mobile optimized version of Online Banking. Enjoy many of the time saving features, for free. Check balance, make one-time bill payments, transfer funds, and locate the nearest branch or ATM and more.

To download, or learn more about our Mobile Apps, please visit:
Mobile App Directory »

1. Simply visit pnc.com from a supported device.
2. On the screen, you will see a download link that will direct you to the appropriate store and application for your device.

2. From there, you will be directed to the appropriate mobile app where you can download and install the app to your device.  

1. Ensure that the surface contrasts with the color of the check.  A solid dark background against a white/light colored check works best.

3. Ensure that your camera lens is clean. Pocket lint and dust can build up on camera lens, which can degrade photo quality.
4. Ensure that your check is properly endorsed for Mobile Deposit: sign your name on the back of the check and write "For PNC Mobile Deposit Only" below your signature.
5. Once deposited, keep your check in a secure area for at least 2 weeks to ensure that your deposit has been credited to your account. Once you confirm it has been deposited, destroy the check.

You should expect to receive your new debit card in a plain envelope around the beginning of the expiration month. If you have not received your replacement card by that time, please call us or visit your local PNC Branch Office.

Here are some reasons you may not have received a replacement debit card:

• The address we have on file for you may not be correct. Please check by calling us or by signing on to Online Banking to ensure that the address we have on file for you is accurate.
• You have not used your card in the past 12 months or your previous card was never activated. If this is the case, you should receive a notification letter in advance telling you that your debit card will not be reissued. 

For Credit Cards

Credit cards expire at the end of the month indicated on your credit card.  If you have not received your new credit card 3 weeks before your current credit card expires, please contact us using the phone number on the back of your current credit card.  You may not receive a new credit card if your account is not in good standing or is inactive.

Yes, we offer an array of options for making your mortgage payment online; Check them out on our Payment Options page.

With our free automated payment program, you can automate your monthly mortgage payments and avoid writing checks and paying for postage each month. Once you get set up, your mortgage payment is automatically paid each month on the same day.

• Automated Payment Authorization Form (Mortgage and Consumer) - Pay your Mortgage or Home Equity Line of Credit or Home Equity Installment Loan from any account, including accounts at other banks.

To sign up for our Automated Payment Program, simply, go to PNC Online Banking.

Once you log-in to your account, click and complete and submit the authorization form online.  It’s fast and easy to enroll.

Automated Payment set up generally takes 10 business days..  Therefore,  please continue to make your payments until you receive written confirmation of your enrollment from PNC Mortgage.  You will also find an Automated Payment Authorization Form within your coupon booklet and may complete the request and mail it to us. 

The PNC Mortgage Bi-Weekly Automated Payment Program automatically withdraws ½ of your mortgage payment directly from your accounts every 2 weeks.

By enrolling in the program you will be making 13 monthly payments per year – instead of 12. This “extra” payment will automatically be applied to your principal balance, paying off your loan faster and reducing the total interest you will pay on your mortgage. The funds from your first ½ payment each month will be held in a non-interest bearing account, and will be applied once a full monthly payment is received.

To learn more about our Bi-Weekly Automated Payment Program, visit our Important Forms & Documents section for more details and an authorization form.

An increase or decrease in your payment may be a result of an increase or decrease in your property taxes and/or insurance premiums and may result in an escrow shortage or surplus. An increase or decrease in your taxes may be due to a property reassessment, a change in the tax rate, a change in an exemption or a special assessment.

Rather than making a partial payment, please call 1-800-523-8654 to speak to a Customer Service Representative about your options. We may have a program available to you that permits a period of forbearance.

If your payment is deducted from your checking account each month, and you are enrolled in an Automated Payment Program, or the Bi-Weekly Automated Payment Program, the new payment amount will automatically be deducted from your account.

If you established your monthly payment to be automatically paid via your bank’s online bill pay system, you would need to modify the monthly payment amount.

PNC has different grace periods, but the majority of loans are assessed a late charge on the night of the 16th.  Late fees vary in accordance with the mortgage note.

More than likely, this bill is an assessment or supplemental bill. Some taxing authorities will send this type of bill because an additional amount is due that was not assessed at the beginning of the current tax cycle. You may wish to contact your local taxing authority for clarification.

If you have an escrow account for taxes and the regular property tax bill is for the current taxes due, we will obtain the tax bills from the tax collector.  You may retain the bill for your records. 

If the tax bill is for delinquent taxes due, please call us via 800-822-5626.

Please note, for customers in the states of PA, CA, VA, MD, NJ, ID, IA, ME, and CT: Supplemental, interim and/or special/additional assessment tax is not escrowed. You are responsible for paying these bills. In addition, if you do not have a tax escrow account, you will need to pay the bill prior to the due date.

You may pay the shortage in your escrow account using the coupon attached to your escrow analysis statement.  Upon receipt of the escrow payment shortage, we will adjust your payment to reflect the lower payment amount. If you choose not to pay the shortage, the shortage will be divided by 12 and spread over the next 12 months payments, interest free. In either case, your mortgage payment will be adjusted to reflect the new amount. If you currently use a coupon book for remitting your payment, a new coupon book will be sent to you within 15 days of the original escrow analysis.  However, if you’re interested in setting up electronic payments to avoid writing a check and paying postage, it’s easy. Log into your account at PNC Online Banking to enroll in our Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Program.

PNC can assist you with information pertaining to your mortgage.  However, we do not have access to information regarding why your taxes, insurance or special assessments have changed. Please contact your local tax office or your insurance agent for further assistance.

Single family dwelling mortgage loans secured by a primary residence and closed after July 29, 1999 are covered under the Homeowner’s Protection Act of 1998 (HOPA).  The Act gives customers the right to request PMI deletion once the Loan to Value (LTV) ratio reaches 80%.   This will automatically take effect once it’s scheduled to reach 78%.

If you feel your loan qualifies for PMI deletion, please send a written request to the PNC Bank ISAOA ATIMA address listed below so your request can be reviewed accordingly.  PMI deletion requires a good pay history: no payment may be 30 or more days late in the past 12 months, and no payment may be more than 60 or more days late in the past 24 months.  You may be responsible for the costs of an appraisal.
