Use the link to connect with customer service through Twitter
PNC Bank, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.
Go to products and services and pause or login to PNC.com and pause before entering password or click the customer service tab once logged into PNC.com.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- PNC Bank customer service can be accessed through their website.
