I don't believe this would be something new. There are/were several deaf-friendly banks in Knoxville, Tenn., where the deaf community is fairly-sized. They had phone numbers for TTY/TDD only and some of the employees knew sign languages.
Bank of American used to have TTY services based in Kansas. Its recently shut down few years ago because less people using TTY to call BOA. So that means the demands for TTY services has greatly declined.
Local bank is somewhere dying concept of bank. Today we are changing into Internet based banking services. You can pay your bills through your bank account via website. I know many major bank do that and even offer free bill mail paper checks. Mean you do not need to waste your money on PO stamps when bank has it covered for you.
I have been customer of Bank of America, Wells Fargo, US Bank, Chase and Riggs (local bank in DC). First 4 banks offer online banking and it rocks! My wife had local bank and it sucked because we couldnt view online banking or mail check via website. She eventually closed her local bank and opened with me to mega banks.
Most local bank do not offer those kind of advance billing cycle system to pay our bills. Much easier than the previous generation.
