Absolutely the slowest Truist bank I have been to. I make daily deposits at various Truist Banks at the drive-thru and this is absolutely the worst

I have an auto loan with Truist and decided to open a checking and money market account to use them as my primary bank. Less than a week later I’m already switching back to my old bank.
The young lady who opened my account was excellent and this review is not a reflection of her.
Truist as a bank is horrible. They decided to reverse payments on my auto loan from 3 months ago and charge me a fee of $50 because now the account is past due. No one at customer service can figure out why they were reversed to begin with as the account information is verified and valid.
Everytime you Zelle a payment, be prepared to have to call their fraud department. Safety is great, but waiting on hold for 45 minutes to send a Zelle payment under $10 is ridiculous. I’ve made 4 Zelle payments and 3 of them were flagged by fraud and I had to call each time to get my account unlocked.
Also, they hold checks for longer than other banks even if you have enough funds in your account to cover the check. I’ve spent hours on the phone with them and have not resolved any of the issues I mentioned. As soon as they release the hold on the tiny check I deposited I’m closing these accounts. Unfortunately I’m stuck with them for the loan but it just gives me incentive to pay it off early, provided they stop reversing my payments and charging fees for errors they are having at the payment center. DON’T BANK HERE.
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.
Phone: Call us at 844-4TRUIST (844-487-8487). We’re available Monday through Friday, 8 am to 8 pm, and Saturday, 8 am to 5 pm.
