The bank in Star Trek Online is a universal storage facility for any inventory items. Items placed into any bank will appear in all banks throughout the galaxy and would be available for retrieval no matter which bank was visited.

For the purposes of item possession for Ship and officer injuries and duty officer assignments, the contents of the bank are available even if they are not in your character's inventory.
Example: A medical assignment that requires 5 Medical Supplies is considered still a plannable assignment even though you have no Medical Supplies in your inventory, but have the minimum amount in your bank. If your ship sustains an injury, Minor components can be used to repair the ship even though you have no Minor Components in your inventory, but have the minimum amount in your Bank. If a rare sample trace is required for an assignment, the same assignment can be planned with the trace still in your bank and not in your inventory, and so on.

This part of the Promo Bundle has remained unpacked because your character is already at or near the max number of available Bank Slots that may be purchased. This package may be traded to other characters on your account, and applied to any character that is not at/near this upper limit.
An additional 12 bank slots (character unlock) can be purchased from the Zen Store for 300 , up to seventeen (17) times per character. Should a character at or near the limit receive a promotional bundle that would put them over the limit of Bank slots, an account-bound [Promo - Additional Bank Slots] will be placed in their inventory instead.
