Merger Announcement And Rebranding
On Monday, September 1, Hellenic Bank officially rebranded as Eurobank Limited, following its merger with Eurobank Cyprus. After 49 years, the familiar Hellenic emblem will be phased out, replaced by the new corporate image in line with the standards of the Eurobank Group.
Seamless Operational Continuity For Hellenic Customers
Account numbers, IBANs, and banking details remain unchanged. Debit and credit cards, along with existing PINs and online banking credentials, will continue to function without disruption. Although new cards featuring the Eurobank logo will be introduced over time, no immediate action is required from customers.

The Hellenic Bank Mobile App, as well as active facilities such as recurring transfers and direct deposits, will maintain their current operation. Branch staff will continue to provide service, with options available to transfer accounts to other locations if preferred.
Unaltered Terms And Conditions
All existing contractual arrangements, including product terms and interest rates, will remain intact. Fee structures for transactions, including transfers between Hellenic Bank and Eurobank Cyprus, will not change—these inter-bank transfers will now be processed without fees as part of a unified system.
Loan Approvals And Credit Facilities
Loan commitments approved prior to the legal integration will be executed under their original terms. All documentation and conditions for loans in progress will retain their pre-merger status, ensuring that customers experience no alteration to their existing credit agreements.
Guidance For Eurobank Customers And Joint Account Holders
Eurobank customers will observe no immediate modifications to their card services, digital banking platforms, or associated withdrawal limits. Features such as ATM withdrawals, currently set at €500 per transaction, will persist as defined until any sanctioned updates are communicated.
For clients maintaining relationships with both banking entities, services will continue seamlessly through the current staff until a full system consolidation is completed. Safe deposit boxes and digital features remain unaffected by the transition.
Conclusion
This strategic merger marks a pivotal evolution in the region’s banking landscape, aimed at unifying operations while sustaining customer confidence. Both Hellenic and Eurobank customers can expect a stable transition, with clear communication regarding any future enhancements to services or fee structures.
