Blackhawk Bank Mortgage Servicing Transfer

Blackhawk Bank is becoming First Mid Bank & Trust

For Blackhawk Bank mortgage accounts, there will be a blackout period from December 1-8, 2023. During this time, account information will be unavailable. However, if at any time you have questions, please contact a mortgage loan department representative to assist you at 800-914-7434. Servicing hours are 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. CT, Monday-Friday.

If you have not received a Notice of Servicing Transfer in the mail and would like to make a payment on your mortgage loan before December 11, 2023, you may contact your local First Mid banking center to request your new mortgage loan account number.

As a First Mid mortgage customer, you will have a variety of options available for making payments on your loan:


You may continue to make mortgage payments in person at any First Mid Bank & Trust location and enjoy your trusted relationship with our mortgage professionals.


Beginning December 1, 2023, you may mail payments to the following address. Please include your new loan account number with your payment.

First Mid Bank & Trust
P.O. Box 0054
Palatine IL 60055-0054


Beginning December 8, 2023, you may make payments through our online Loan Servicing Center. You will need your new loan account number to register online. Access to the Loan Servicing Center is also available under the “Choose Another Login” dropdown menu at the top of our website. Once registered, you may also sign up for automatic payments, view your loan information, request payoff amount, view payment history, request paperless billing, chat online with a representative during business hours, and more.


If you are currently making mortgage payments to Blackhawk Bank by means of automatic deduction, this service will NOT automatically continue. If you would like to begin using automatic deductions for mortgage payments with First Mid, please print, complete, and sign a new automatic payment form and return to First Mid Bank & Trust as indicated on the form. You should retain a copy of the form for your records. First Mid will notify you of the month in which the automatic deductions will begin. Until you have received notification that your automatic deductions will begin, please send your regular payments by check, including your new loan account number, to:

First Mid Bank & Trust
P.O. Box 0054
Palatine IL 60055-0054

If you are currently using an online service or 3rd party bill service to pay your mortgage payment, the payee information, loan number, and payment address will need to be updated.


We look forward to serving your mortgage loan needs.
