I don’t understand the negative reviews here. The good people at this branch have been nothing but efficient and courteous with me. Strong recommendation.

The Customer Service is terrrible.
I went to the Suntrust Bank in Takoma Park, Md today at Noon. I wanted to withdraw some money from my checking account. I tried to do it yesterday and today at the ATM machine, but I kept getting an error.
Noon is supposed to be a very busy time at most banks. It should be “all hands on deck” – however, when I arrived at the Takoma Park branch, there was only one teller at work. The other teller was behind the counter taking a nap during lunch hour.
Meanwhile, the Branch Manager was speaking to one of our co-workers in the front lobby – congratulating her on getting two consumer appointments and one business appointment for this week.
Picture this – I’m standing in line – there is another person in front of me – I’ve been standing in line for 10 minutes – no help. Only one teller. I finally had to leave because like most people, I’m working remotely these days and my time is valuable.
What’s wrong with this picture? Where is the customer service? Anyone with half a brain knows that lunch hour is the busiest time for any bank – tellers and other employees can always take lunch at 1:00.
In summary –
The Takoma Park branch ATM machine isn’t working.
Only one teller behind the counter during lunch hour when most clients are expected to arrive at the bank.
Bragging about lining up appointments when you have a client no more than a few feet away seeking help.
My advice- please do better.
Do you need a debit card and checks? A safe place to save money you’ve earned? Or both? Check out our checking and savings account options to find the best one for you.
Checking accounts are used for day-to-day transactions, like buying something online or at a store with a debit card, sending money digitally, writing a rent check, or depositing cash and checks.
Savings accounts are more of a one-way street—a place to deposit money to save up for a goal or emergency fund.
You can open your new account any way you want. (Note that Truist CDs can only be opened at a branch.)
Online: Get started right away by opening your account online. You’ll have to wait a few days for your debit card and checks to arrive by mail—or you can visit a branch to get a temporary debit card ASAP.
Branch: Visit a branch near you during business hours to open your new account. Bonus—you’ll walk out with a ready-to-use temporary debit card with your new checking account.
