It is time to get this investigated by the STATE and GO after THAT BANK ! Banks NEED to be HELD ACCOUTABLE this is people's hard earned money and life savings!
I was thinking the same thing... Too bad Truist won't launch an investigation. The best thing I ever did was to close out my account.... and that my friend was not an easy process. I lost money with this bank.
It’s an inside job my family member got hit canceled his card got a new card but never activated it and started getting hit again called and they said well it shows it came from your card which he never activated so that tells you it’s an inside job
I agree with you I think it’s an inside job it’s just to confirm vina that so many people are getting ripped off people weren’t getting Social Security checks frauded out of so much money and Truist is refusing to make it right. It supposed to be FDIC insured they are probably Illuminati
An IN-side job by OUT-sourced thieves. It's especially horrific that hardworking people are not only being preyed upon but stonewalled when they lodge justified claims.
I been with suntrust for 9 years with no issues and as soon as they merged over I’ve had so many issues with them… I literally have issues paying my rent cause they hold the money for days. I want to change my bank so bad 😩
truist is helping BB&T to get out of the mess that they was in back in 2019. they had to pay 83 millions to the government for not going by federal guidelines on FHA loans.
I switched from these thieves 2 months ago,the branch manager told me to my face that it was a smart move considering the new owners are from overseas and they employ independent contractors to watch over accounts in which they have total control over. An elderly couple had 50k in a retirement account there(BB&T) and when they went to withdraw it,Truist froze their account right there in front of their faces,it took a lawyer,and a few weeks,but they finally got their money and got the hell away from these people. Truist can go belly-up as far as I'm concerned.
They strongly believe in outsourcing which leads to more mistakes. They completely rushed the merger and downsized a lot of employees a week before Christmas.
Why the fuck would u use them in the first place 🤦🤦 why dont u use wells fargo, or chase bank and do not use bank of america they will rip u off bank of america is one of the worst banks in the united states
I did a transfer for 10,000 dollars from my old account to my new account with truist truist lost my money and still won't do anything to help me. This bank is stealing peoples money they need to be held accountable.
The banks are no longer your friends people! Some of these institutions are no longer FDIC - covered by the government! I think I’d be taking my money out of that bank and find a M&T Bank - they will cover any loses!
This is a horrible bank … when was BB&T I never had a problem … since they arrive it’s been problem after problem that’s why I close my account and I move on to another bank… One of the best decisions in my life
Ever since they moved to truist I've been getting random emails from bank accounts I don't have, my account password is getting hacked and actual fraud. NEVER had an issue with BB&T until it turned to Truist. They're the new Wells Fargo
Since the merger . The account doesn’t show our true balance ever. It either appears more or sometimes it appears less then what we are supposed to have in our account. I am old school so I still balance my debits/ checks and it is never what I am suppose to have in my account. We are looking for another bank and can’t wait for someone to bring legal actions against them.
I hate Truist and BB&T merged!!! It’s been a headache. I just had fraud hit my account. I got it back but it’s unnerving. I feel bad for these people that worked had for what they have for people to feel like they’re entitled to it. Get a job!!!!😡
breaking news everyone alicia holland just solved the homeless/jobless crisis. All you have to do is just simply "get a job". WOW, who would've thought of that idea? she's truly a genius
You know it really is that easy it might be a little harder for some people than others but with the amount of people and companies on the planet someone will give you a job to do something.
This is atrocious! & appalling! Guess (we all) who bank with Truist should be looking for a new bank .... When the banks Refuse to protect its customers against fraud/fraudulent activity, then it may be time to go Old School, and take our money out these banks🤔
I have my IRAs and Mutual Funds through them. Don’t know what to do now. But don’t worry, six months down the road, they will merge with another bank as this seems to be the norm!
This is what happens when banks outsource operational services. People who have absolutely no affiliation with the bank that's responsible for your finances are given access to ALL of your personal information. Many times they aren't even working in the U.S. and if they are the turnover is so high at the contract call/processing center they've already quit before most fraud is detected.
I think they’re in on it. I think the people that are running it overseas or scammers. That’s why they’re offering $500 for people to open an account and have direct deposit because they’re trying to lower people and so they can steal their money. I mean, even people that were getting Social Security and SSI checks for losing their money and they were stealing that too. That’s pretty horrible. It’s all horrible.
They should be FDIC insured An FDIC insured account is a bank account at an institution where deposits are federally protected against bank failure or theft. The FDIC is a federally backed deposit insurance agency where member banks pay regular premiums to fund claims. The maximum insurable amount is currently $250,000 per depositor, per bank.
Wire transfers are NOT covered under the $250,000 FDIC insurance. If the bank fails, then they pay, but they do NOT pay for fraudulent transfers. I would know, I lost $100,000 this way and TRUIST is an ice cube when it comes to helping out. I hate them.
They can keep fighting all they want, but they will never ever get their money back. Not a penny. And the Ones responsible WILL get by with it and KEEP their money. That's exactly what happened to me. The first time around $300,000.00 and the Second Time over $120,000.00!!! Completely Broke Me. I now have NOTHING. and I'm living with NOTHING. LIVING WITHOUT.
I got hit for $100,000 and same here. I have moved heaven and earth to get through to the so called fraud team and they only got $7700 back so far. I don't believe for ONE MINUTE that there isn't more to it than just a scammer doing their hacks. Someone has to tell them who banks there to know how to find you or gets a list. I was told by the fraud team on a recorded line that it sounded like someone shared an employee badge with a someone as that is the only way they can get into your account. Then the other thing I was told by an employee very quietly ... "I don't want to lose my job, but someone got hacked in an account, opened up a new account to move their funds and the second account was hacked the next day." Something is soooo off. I wouldn't put it past the AT&T Data breach to be working with the banks to get into our funds.
Truist allowed their most experienced employees to mass retire before the merger. They did not replace them in a timely manner. Now they are understaffed in almost every area, and I have heard from friends who work there that they are making the employees who stayed loyal work mandatory overtime instead of hiring enough people. Horrendous bank.
This happened to me too. They originally got 40k but Truist (at the time BB&T). Thankfully for me I figured out that something seemed “off” and called the bank immediately. Unfortunately I was put on “hold” for over an hour before I got through to anyone. They were able to freeze 30k, but Instill lost 10k.
Truist Bank is stealing their customers money. This customer was on the phone with a bank representative and the account was frozen yet Truist still processed the wire transactions and somehow won't return the money. How can this be?
Because who he was on the phone with was falsely representing Truist and probably behind the theft. You'd be surprised to see how these scammers operate. Look up Jim Browning or Scammer Payback on RUclips and you'll see.
Lawsuit, lawsuit, lawsuit! What was BBT and is now truist has a clause in regards to overdrafting and that you would only be charged the standard $36 overdraft fee for purchases $5 or higher but in just my account alone I've received over 100 $36.00 dollar charges for overdrafts under $2.00. They will put your spending in a pending status and then will complete transaction at their discretion, not in the order the purchase was made, even if transactions were days apart, resulting in small change overdrafts leading to the $36.00 fee. I've been told it is algorithm, but seems like fraud or embezzlement. And with a legal clause that states you can not take them to court, only use THEIR mediator.. Audit Audit Audit
Let's not do the false narrative thing, it's not about me over drafting as an individual which I rarely do. The issue is in this financial institute stepping outside of their own policy and the lack of accountability when their clients or customers are on the losing end of a slippery policy and no accountability.
Well tex , you just said you've recieved over 100 ,$36 overdrafts for less than 2.00 overdrafts. Thats not a rare occasion. False narrative , my ass.15 years ive been with BBT , SUNTRUST, ,and now Truist. Never had an over draw. Writing checks , and making sure you have funds available falls on you. Remember the old adage,," don't write checks , your ass can't cover.
Lol, yes over 100 overdraft charges that goes against their own policy, when said overdrafts were only created by their " algorithm ". Thanks for the laugh bud. Hey let's create a policy and then not follow it...hahahaha
Start using credit unions! There is a federal CFR for banks. Banks MUST have business continuity measures in place to protect the customer. The 2002 Sarbanes Oxley Act states that; aka SOX Act.
That’s terrible. I have the same bank. It was BB&T for decades before they changed to Truist. Isn’t there an insurance that will protect a person’s funds? I need to change banks.
This literally happened to me just 8 days ago. I don't even have a TRUIST account but somehow they were able to get a wire transfer through from my account. It's unbelievable....good thing my bank was able to yank that money back.
This same situation happened to our business in Florida. They took 2 wire transfers on Jan 4th that went to Bank of America and 3 transfers on Jan. 5th. that went to Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo did return $18,000. We are still out $60,000. Still no answers.
I'm considering closing my account with Truist. I was with Huntington, which was purchased by Suntrust and then by Truist and already have fraud transactions from Doordash for purchases in San Francisco, and I live in Florida, and they're giving me the runaround. I got no alert from Truist on the transactions.
I just got offered a job as a PA. They were suppose to pay me 1K a week. I get a check 2 weeks later for over 3K. My Bank refused it. Saying they they never heard of Truist. They strongly advised, that if the check bounces. It will be a bad record on my credit.
Truist Bank kept saying that my account did not exist. I rushed to the bank and there were many other people standing at the door waiting for it to open. They had the same thing happened to them. I have 2 accounts with Truist and both accounts were saying the same thing. The branch manager got it straight. 3 days later it said the same thing. Branch manager lady had an attitude. She said she was exhausted from other customers fussing at her that she said she has not even had a bathroom break. I closed out both of my accounts and withdrew what I had in both accounts. Didn't want to take another chance on hearing that my accounts did not exist.
I banked with BB&T for 20 yrs now God awful Truist.I have my private and business account still with them.I stopped using my Truist business credit card last summer (2021).....I was starting to have problems , I would call them and they treated me very terrible and very unprofessional.its been a year I need to close out my accounts and move to a better financial institution. Any of them would be better than Truist!!! Don't Bank here!!!
I feel sorry for these people who lost all their money.Just because it is a bank does not mean their systems are secure.These are just numbers on a computer,hackers can still get around these systems and wipe you out.
It's clear the people working in the high seats at the bank is releasing these people information and taking their money. Who else no what's in your account 🤔
How can 2 regulated and established banks merge and become a 3rd world bank virtually overnight? Not isolated incidents. There are MANY cases of this happening to Truist accounts.. And Truist appears to have ignored complaints from some account holders about the fraud..
this is why i dont use banks for my financial savings. i keep a checking account open with truist just to put just enough money in every month to cover my automatic expenses. everything else i pay myself without the assistance of a bank.
ACH and wire transfers are the way the money is being stolen and that is a little fine print you don't know is NOT covered under the FDIC insurance. This bank is a train wreck.
I Don’t have a lot of money, but I have been noticing that every time I check my account there are a couple of dollars missing, but the transaction amounts are the same the previous time I checked. Also their update system is trash. I deposit money, wait a few days, pay bills, but the system shows that I payed and then deposited, so it reads it like I overdrafted and charge me. The worst part is you can only receive one reimbursement of the fee, even if the other fees where on them and the system
Truist Bank is the absolute worse bank that has ever been in business. I had a Suntrust account before Suntrust and BB&B merged and became Truist. I never had one problem with Suntrust but Truist is a different story. As soon as I can, I am going to close my account and switch to a Federal Credit Union in my area. Truist has the worst hold times of any bank out there. I anticipated a few problems when they finally completed the merger earlier this year but now that it is October 2022 the problems have not been remedied.
My wife's card has been stolen/frauded 4 times since Truist took over BB&T. Just getting back from the bank now to have her existing card cancelled and replaced. She only had it for 2 weeks and barely used it at all. It HAS to be somebody on the inside of this organization.
Because ACH wire transfers are not covered under that $250K insurance ... but they don't tell you that when you set up your account and won't warn people to make sure they have 2 steps of authorization on it. I lost six figures to someone who got into my account BEFORE I got a call from the fraud team telling me I was losing my tail in fraud. I ran to the bank and $100,000 GONE ... and they didn't freeze it right away until I got to the bank. I freaking HATE TRUIST.
A local small business in TN was just scammed out of some of their business finds through this bank. Is there a class action suit happening? I hear that when they signed up for their account, Truist made them sign an agreement not to sue for fraud. Are they not insured for such losses? I hope out local friends get their money back befire Truist does something stupid like declare bankruptcy.
That was our business. We signed the normal paperwork that most banks use when you open an account...we didn't read it, and most people probably don't. We were in the bank again today asking for an update and we were told by the branch manager that hundreds of clients have come in asking if their money is safe and some have closed accounts as a direct result of us being so vocal about it on social media.
I was robbed too ... big time six figures. They only got a few thousand back and I got a cold letter in th email saying that's about it. I was with BB&T when they merged so I hope to get a snarling firy attorney to get my money back. I had a bank employee I know take my head off when I started to discuss it on social media to warn other people. SO many people are leaving TRUIST due to fraud and going to the community banks. I am wondering if TRUIST will tank like the Titanic for leaving everyone stranded. @@soulmatesandsawdusttn
I am not a customer banking with Truist but my first flag of alarm is how I am receiving suspicious text messages stating my account is on hold due to suspicious activity. I did consider my bank had merged or something I wasn't aware of. I have received 3 text messages from all different area codes including a local number. The second flag is the simple grammatical errors in the texts. PEOPLE...DONT CLICK THE LINK!
The bank should replace it because it use to be bb&T Bank before it became truist , the toll free number called me twice one night and I didn't answer and they also sent a text to my phone it was scammers and I did t answer it either ,I called the bank the next day and the lady at the bank give me the right number they no longer use the 1 800 number ,I monitor my account everyday
Not a small business owner but this literally happened to my husband last week.. he got his new card and then a msg asking if he was trying to take out $107.. now waiting to get yet another new card
I just want to warn people whenever you receive a text message talking about anything about Amazon account or eBay or anything. Do not respond to those links because they're scammers fishing 🎣 for your bank information. it's always something bad on the other end of these text messages one of them almost froze my phone up until I thought about removing my SIM card.
Scammers are sending "Truist" texts and links asking you to sign on to your account in order to steal in your information/money. I personally received 3 texts, only 1 of them had a typo that would make it look "not real". Truist customer for only 45 days
Yep, got one yesterday! Knew right off it was a scam! I relied to them they are scammers! But not everyone does. I am leaving them because they have been nothing but problems since they merged!
This just happened to us with Truist Bank. It began on 10/1/2022. Three weeks later and we are still experiencing almost daily unauthorized activity. We lost everything in our personal and business accounts and since our son's account was linked to ours, he lost everything he had as well. None of the funds that were wired out have been returned to us.
@@Lolfuckyouhaha We have reported it everywhere, including the FBI. It has been 8 weeks now and we still have no answers on how this happened. There is MUCH more to our story than I can even put here. It's absolutely unbelievable.
They just shut off my cards and deactivated them from the accounts. All they could offer me new cards. No exsplination or documentation of who or why my cards were blocked. They had complete control of my money for almost a week! After seeing this, I will definitely be changing banks!!
Oh my god, I just ordered a new debit card from Truist because I lost mine and it’s been more than 6 days since I received anything… they told me it would take 1-3 days max. I hate this bank I will be switching soon…
I’m having issues with all these charges on my account that I didn’t make. I changed my debit card thinking it was hacked, removed my card from various places. I did everything I could and they’re still taking money, money that I need for my disability income. I’m changing banks. This was not happening when it was Suntrust
How is it that he was on the phone with customer service while the bank transfers went through?! They should have frozen it before any of them went through !
Truist bank is despicable the FDIC should interview and close them down, so should the federal trust somethings should be done about this because obviously they don’t have security measures in place that they should
Sounds like they are complicit with the fraudulent behavior. My wife just got notified by mail today that she has 2 accounts with truist in NC we live in over 900 miles from NC. She never opened any accounts.
Truist does NOTHING to handle anything. I was scammed thru Zelle & been dealing with it since 4/20/2022 & nothing. I have reported to the GBI & CFPB as well.
We had to deal with Truist with a total car on December 27, 20201. It finally got settled at the first of may of this year. Biggest mess I have ever seen. Just kept adding fees on too another . Plus it was there fault on top of that because the insurance could not send payoff . We will never do any business with them again.
So this happened during a merger. When I find out that a bank that holds one of my accounts is merging, I close that account. Then, I may go back look for another bank. Sounds simple but I'm sure there could be complications for other ppl.
I have a good mind to close my (NOW) TRUIST account. I was with BB&T for 20+ years and had very little issues or heard of any serious issues till they merged with Sun Trust.
Suntrust didnt merge with Truist, it is Truist. Suntrust and BB&T merged then the company that resulted from the merger of both companies took the name Truist.
@@Kev4Kev I’ve been with BB& T for over 15 years. Just recently they changed to Truist. I do Auto Payoffs for a dealership and both suntrust and BB& T were separate entities. Now all payoffs are made to Truist.
@@lisafilly464 I just explained it did you not compehend it? They became one company back in 2019 by merging the two companies which were BB&T and Suntrust after they merged they became one company which had the name Truist Financial. Each bank was operated seperately until around October of 2021. Everything was intergrated in late 2021 or early 2022 depending on where you are located. Suntrust did not merged with Truist, there as no Truist until BB&T and Sunrtust merged. What you stated about Suntrust merging with Truist is not correct. Suntrust merged with BB&T and then after they merged the new company took the name Truist.

Sounds like incompetent work during the merger process. The State AG needs to investigate this matter along with the FDIC.
Sun Trust Bank is called don’t trust Bank.
Seems like when they merged they neglected to ensure they had adequate system security set up. They should be held accountable
I agree …
They are horrendous
Especially the man on the phone with customer service while transfers are happening.
That merge turned them into flaming trash. Do not know why they merged!
Think of Truist in terms of being attracted to someone, do you know how ugly your bank has to be to make Wells Fargo look doable?
The dad crying about his son broke my heart😥.
I left Truist months ago. It’s horrible. I bet it’s someone inside Truist doing it. It’s been shit since the merger.
I was thinking the same thing... Too bad Truist won't launch an investigation. The best thing I ever did was to close out my account.... and that my friend was not an easy process. I lost money with this bank.

Truist must be prosecuted. In Delaware the bank employee at TD was checking victims' bank account totals before the fraud checks were being cashed.

This is what happens when banks outsource operational services.

Many times they aren't even working in the U.S. and if they are the turnover is so high at the contract call/processing center they've already quit before most fraud is detected.
Maybe when business owners and others hear this they will close their accounts and that will wake Truist up to the fact they need to do something NOW.
I've also had trouble with Truist. They went downhill after the merger. I do not trust them anymore & will be leaving.
There’s something fishy going on at this bank. This has happened to other people as well. Either this bank has terrible security or they’re in on it.
I think they’re in on it. I think the people that are running it overseas or scammers. That’s why they’re offering $500 for people to open an account and have direct deposit because they’re trying to lower people and so they can steal their money. I mean, even people that were getting Social Security and SSI checks for losing their money and they were stealing that too. That’s pretty horrible. It’s all horrible.
They should be FDIC insured An FDIC insured account is a bank account at an institution where deposits are federally protected against bank failure or theft. The FDIC is a federally backed deposit insurance agency where member banks pay regular premiums to fund claims. The maximum insurable amount is currently $250,000 per depositor, per bank.
Your absolutely right!!!!
FDIC only kicks in if the Bank itself fails and goes under. Doesn’t apply to fraud.
@@1288rotc You Are Right Thank you for providing accurate information vs false or deceptive commentary.
Wire transfers are NOT covered under the $250,000 FDIC insurance. If the bank fails, then they pay, but they do NOT pay for fraudulent transfers. I would know, I lost $100,000 this way and TRUIST is an ice cube when it comes to helping out. I hate them.
They can keep fighting all they want, but they will never ever get their money back. Not a penny. And the Ones responsible WILL get by with it and KEEP their money. That's exactly what happened to me. The first time around $300,000.00 and the Second Time over $120,000.00!!! Completely Broke Me. I now have NOTHING. and I'm living with NOTHING. LIVING WITHOUT.
I got hit for $100,000 and same here. I have moved heaven and earth to get through to the so called fraud team and they only got $7700 back so far. I don't believe for ONE MINUTE that there isn't more to it than just a scammer doing their hacks. Someone has to tell them who banks there to know how to find you or gets a list. I was told by the fraud team on a recorded line that it sounded like someone shared an employee badge with a someone as that is the only way they can get into your account. Then the other thing I was told by an employee very quietly ... "I don't want to lose my job, but someone got hacked in an account, opened up a new account to move their funds and the second account was hacked the next day." Something is soooo off. I wouldn't put it past the AT&T Data breach to be working with the banks to get into our funds.
Can’t believe truist keeps getting away with this
Somebody steals $25,000 from you then you have to hire a lawyer for $25,000 to get your $25,000 back.
Truist allowed their most experienced employees to mass retire before the merger. They did not replace them in a timely manner. Now they are understaffed in almost every area, and I have heard from friends who work there that they are making the employees who stayed loyal work mandatory overtime instead of hiring enough people. Horrendous bank.
This happened to me too. They originally got 40k but Truist (at the time BB&T). Thankfully for me I figured out that something seemed “off” and called the bank immediately. Unfortunately I was put on “hold” for over an hour before I got through to anyone. They were able to freeze 30k, but Instill lost 10k.
Truist Bank is stealing their customers money. This customer was on the phone with a bank representative and the account was frozen yet Truist still processed the wire transactions and somehow won't return the money. How can this be?
Because who he was on the phone with was falsely representing Truist and probably behind the theft. You'd be surprised to see how these scammers operate. Look up Jim Browning or Scammer Payback on RUclips and you'll see.
Because they’re thieves
I just had this happen to me just 12 days ago and Truist won’t do anything about it.
This just happened to my bf last week and it’s still under investigation. I hope he gets his money back
The moment SunTrust merged with BB&T, l knew it will turn to a mess.
Lawsuit, lawsuit, lawsuit! What was BBT and is now truist has a clause in regards to overdrafting and that you would only be charged the standard $36 overdraft fee for purchases $5 or higher but in just my account alone I've received over 100 $36.00 dollar charges for overdrafts under $2.00. They will put your spending in a pending status and then will complete transaction at their discretion, not in the order the purchase was made, even if transactions were days apart, resulting in small change overdrafts leading to the $36.00 fee. I've been told it is algorithm, but seems like fraud or embezzlement. And with a legal clause that states you can not take them to court, only use THEIR mediator.. Audit Audit Audit
Hell yes. Ive had to be real careful with the debit , cuz they will wait days before showing transaction, n u may have forgot .
Don't overdraw, by writing Checks if you don't have sufficient funds.
Let's not do the false narrative thing, it's not about me over drafting as an individual which I rarely do. The issue is in this financial institute stepping outside of their own policy and the lack of accountability when their clients or customers are on the losing end of a slippery policy and no accountability.
Well tex , you just said you've recieved over 100 ,$36 overdrafts for less than 2.00 overdrafts. Thats not a rare occasion. False narrative , my ass.15 years ive been with BBT , SUNTRUST, ,and now Truist. Never had an over draw. Writing checks , and making sure you have funds available falls on you. Remember the old adage,," don't write checks , your ass can't cover.
Lol, yes over 100 overdraft charges that goes against their own policy, when said overdrafts were only created by their " algorithm ". Thanks for the laugh bud. Hey let's create a policy and then not follow it...hahahaha
Start using credit unions! There is a federal CFR for banks. Banks MUST have business continuity measures in place to protect the customer. The 2002 Sarbanes Oxley Act states that; aka SOX Act.
That’s terrible. I have the same bank. It was BB&T for decades before they changed to Truist. Isn’t there an insurance that will protect a person’s funds? I need to change banks.
Actually, Suntrust and BB&T merged.
Anyone know a better bank or credit union I should try? I'm sick of looking over my shoulder for these greedy apathetic banksters
Try nfcu
This literally happened to me just 8 days ago. I don't even have a TRUIST account but somehow they were able to get a wire transfer through from my account. It's unbelievable....good thing my bank was able to yank that money back.
This bank will not I repeat will not protect you
This same situation happened to our business in Florida. They took 2 wire transfers on Jan 4th that went to Bank of America and 3 transfers on Jan. 5th. that went to Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo did return $18,000. We are still out $60,000. Still no answers.
I'm so sorry. We did not lose nearly that much, but we did lose thousands to the exact same scenario. No answers for us either.
same thing happen to me ....but they gave me our money back.Its an inside job .
how did it take to investigate your case and return the money?
I'm considering closing my account with Truist. I was with Huntington, which was purchased by Suntrust and then by Truist and already have fraud transactions from Doordash for purchases in San Francisco, and I live in Florida, and they're giving me the runaround. I got no alert from Truist on the transactions.
Hit me with your truist, let's deal if you wanna get back at them
I had BB&t until trust bought them..an every since I've had nothing but problems shitty customer service it's a horrible bank.
I just got offered a job as a PA. They were suppose to pay me 1K a week. I get a check 2 weeks later for over 3K.
My Bank refused it. Saying they they never heard of Truist. They strongly advised, that if the check bounces. It will be a bad record on my credit.
I was already thinking to change banks, now I will for sure
Dyn, I’am right there with you. In the military we call it a Cluster F___!!! A Disabled Veteran🇺🇸🇺🇸😡
Truist Bank kept saying that my account did not exist. I rushed to the bank and there were many other people standing at the door waiting for it to open. They had the same thing happened to them. I have 2 accounts with Truist and both accounts were saying the same thing. The branch manager got it straight. 3 days later it said the same thing. Branch manager lady had an attitude. She said she was exhausted from other customers fussing at her that she said she has not even had a bathroom break. I closed out both of my accounts and withdrew what I had in both accounts. Didn't want to take another chance on hearing that my accounts did not exist.
Hit me up with your truist let's deal then you can close it
I pray that everyone to be restored whole. All of the funds will be restored to the penny.❤️❤️❤️
Looks like it’s time for a class action lawsuit!!!
I banked with BB&T for 20 yrs now God awful Truist.I have my private and business account still with them.I stopped using my Truist business credit card last summer (2021).....I was starting to have problems , I would call them and they treated me very terrible and very unprofessional.its been a year I need to close out my accounts and move to a better financial institution. Any of them would be better than Truist!!! Don't Bank here!!!
So sad 😞.it is so heartbreaking
Just closed my account TODAY!!!!! Thanks.
I feel sorry for these people who lost all their money.Just because it is a bank does not mean their systems are secure.These are just numbers on a computer,hackers can still get around these systems and wipe you out.
Go to a credit union people!!!
It's clear the people working in the high seats at the bank is releasing these people information and taking their money. Who else no what's in your account 🤔
It's the regular person you talk to when you call customer service.
How can 2 regulated and established banks merge and become a 3rd world bank virtually overnight? Not isolated incidents. There are MANY cases of this happening to Truist accounts.. And Truist appears to have ignored complaints from some account holders about the fraud..
I’m nervous now because I created a business account with BB&T just before the merger
this is why i dont use banks for my financial savings. i keep a checking account open with truist just to put just enough money in every month to cover my automatic expenses. everything else i pay myself without the assistance of a bank.
Do you keep the rest of your money in a safe?
How can Truist not give them their money back?? Isn't that what FDIC is all about?
It’s supposed to be
ACH and wire transfers are the way the money is being stolen and that is a little fine print you don't know is NOT covered under the FDIC insurance. This bank is a train wreck.
I Don’t have a lot of money, but I have been noticing that every time I check my account there are a couple of dollars missing, but the transaction amounts are the same the previous time I checked. Also their update system is trash. I deposit money, wait a few days, pay bills, but the system shows that I payed and then deposited, so it reads it like I overdrafted and charge me. The worst part is you can only receive one reimbursement of the fee, even if the other fees where on them and the system
Hit me if you wanna get back at them
Truist Bank is the absolute worse bank that has ever been in business. I had a Suntrust account before Suntrust and BB&B merged and became Truist. I never had one problem with Suntrust but Truist is a different story. As soon as I can, I am going to close my account and switch to a Federal Credit Union in my area. Truist has the worst hold times of any bank out there. I anticipated a few problems when they finally completed the merger earlier this year but now that it is October 2022 the problems have not been remedied.
They should be held accountable and liabled for all their customer accounts.shame on Truist Bank..
My wife's card has been stolen/frauded 4 times since Truist took over BB&T. Just getting back from the bank now to have her existing card cancelled and replaced. She only had it for 2 weeks and barely used it at all. It HAS to be somebody on the inside of this organization.
Can’t get money stolen from your online account if your broke
Yep. I've banked with SunTrust over 20 years. Never keep a significant balance with them. I just don't trust them even before the merger.
Who are the stockholders in this Banking Company
why aren't the banks replacing people's money when it's supposed to be insured up to 250k?
Because ACH wire transfers are not covered under that $250K insurance ... but they don't tell you that when you set up your account and won't warn people to make sure they have 2 steps of authorization on it. I lost six figures to someone who got into my account BEFORE I got a call from the fraud team telling me I was losing my tail in fraud. I ran to the bank and $100,000 GONE ... and they didn't freeze it right away until I got to the bank. I freaking HATE TRUIST.
A local small business in TN was just scammed out of some of their business finds through this bank. Is there a class action suit happening? I hear that when they signed up for their account, Truist made them sign an agreement not to sue for fraud. Are they not insured for such losses?
I hope out local friends get their money back befire Truist does something stupid like declare bankruptcy.
That was our business. We signed the normal paperwork that most banks use when you open an account...we didn't read it, and most people probably don't. We were in the bank again today asking for an update and we were told by the branch manager that hundreds of clients have come in asking if their money is safe and some have closed accounts as a direct result of us being so vocal about it on social media.
I was robbed too ... big time six figures. They only got a few thousand back and I got a cold letter in th email saying that's about it. I was with BB&T when they merged so I hope to get a snarling firy attorney to get my money back. I had a bank employee I know take my head off when I started to discuss it on social media to warn other people. SO many people are leaving TRUIST due to fraud and going to the community banks. I am wondering if TRUIST will tank like the Titanic for leaving everyone stranded. @@soulmatesandsawdusttn
I am not a customer banking with Truist but my first flag of alarm is how I am receiving suspicious text messages stating my account is on hold due to suspicious activity. I did consider my bank had merged or something I wasn't aware of. I have received 3 text messages from all different area codes including a local number. The second flag is the simple grammatical errors in the texts. PEOPLE...DONT CLICK THE LINK!
To anyone effected by this please file a formal complaint with the CFPB.
I did.
The bank should replace it because it use to be bb&T Bank before it became truist , the toll free number called me twice one night and I didn't answer and they also sent a text to my phone it was scammers and I did t answer it either ,I called the bank the next day and the lady at the bank give me the right number they no longer use the 1 800 number ,I monitor my account everyday
Not a small business owner but this literally happened to my husband last week.. he got his new card and then a msg asking if he was trying to take out $107.. now waiting to get yet another new card
Of course they would name the bank "Truist". Both SunTrust and BBT have trust in their original names. Complete garbage.
I just want to warn people whenever you receive a text message talking about anything about Amazon account or eBay or anything. Do not respond to those links because they're scammers fishing 🎣 for your bank information.
it's always something bad on the other end of these text messages one of them almost froze my phone up until I thought about removing my SIM card.
Regina Waycaster VS Truist Bank Employees,TOO! 2 Dúffield Va Truist employees FORGED COUNTER CHECKS WHICH TOTAL OVER $14,000.00
Scammers are sending "Truist" texts and links asking you to sign on to your account in order to steal in your information/money.
I personally received 3 texts, only 1 of them had a typo that would make it look "not real". Truist customer for only 45 days
Yep, got one yesterday! Knew right off it was a scam! I relied to them they are scammers! But not everyone does. I am leaving them because they have been nothing but problems since they merged!
This just happened to us with Truist Bank. It began on 10/1/2022. Three weeks later and we are still experiencing almost daily unauthorized activity. We lost everything in our personal and business accounts and since our son's account was linked to ours, he lost everything he had as well. None of the funds that were wired out have been returned to us.
Have you reported to the bank? What did they do?
@@Lolfuckyouhaha We have reported it everywhere, including the FBI. It has been 8 weeks now and we still have no answers on how this happened. There is MUCH more to our story than I can even put here. It's absolutely unbelievable.
That bank needs to shut down!!!!
They just shut off my cards and deactivated them from the accounts. All they could offer me new cards. No exsplination or documentation of who or why my cards were blocked. They had complete control of my money for almost a week! After seeing this, I will definitely be changing banks!!
I had the same problem two months ago with Truist. I was with SunTrust almost 40years, but never have issues like that, will go to another bank.
Oh my god, I just ordered a new debit card from Truist because I lost mine and it’s been more than 6 days since I received anything… they told me it would take 1-3 days max. I hate this bank I will be switching soon…
They need to shut this bank down with the quickness
Victim here. But we NEVER opened an account with them.
That makes no sense. If you didn't have an account with them they couldn't have taken your money from it.
I’m having issues with all these charges on my account that I didn’t make. I changed my debit card thinking it was hacked, removed my card from various places. I did everything I could and they’re still taking money, money that I need for my disability income. I’m changing banks. This was not happening when it was Suntrust
This bank stole my money too! I was with them only one month! Then they closed my account after stealing my money
How is it that he was on the phone with customer service while the bank transfers went through?! They should have frozen it before any of them went through !
Why would you put money in a bank that cannot spell Trust right? 😂
Truist bank is despicable the FDIC should interview and close them down, so should the federal trust somethings should be done about this because obviously they don’t have security measures in place that they should
Believe me I'm leaving this bank today after 10 years, and it has never been but headache...
Sounds like they are complicit with the fraudulent behavior. My wife just got notified by mail today that she has 2 accounts with truist in NC we live in over 900 miles from NC. She never opened any accounts.
All banks need to be punished for these problems .
Been happening for years
Wells Fargo is another example.
Truist does NOTHING to handle anything. I was scammed thru Zelle & been dealing with it since 4/20/2022 & nothing. I have reported to the GBI & CFPB as well.
If you willingly transferred funds through something like zelle or cashapp etc, banks can generally do nothing.
Wait. The Attorney General and FDIC should step in here. Smh. Our banking institutions are a joke.
Feds need to look into this bank
We had to deal with Truist with a total car on December 27, 20201. It finally got settled at the first of may of this year. Biggest mess I have ever seen. Just kept adding fees on too another . Plus it was there fault on top of that because the insurance could not send payoff . We will never do any business with them again.
So this happened during a merger.
When I find out that a bank that holds one of my accounts is merging, I close that account. Then, I may go back look for another bank. Sounds simple but I'm sure there could be complications for other ppl.
I have a good mind to close my (NOW) TRUIST account. I was with BB&T for 20+ years and had very little issues or heard of any serious issues till they merged with Sun Trust.
Close it NOW
Damn I’m glad I didn’t open a business account with them, im definitely about to shut that account down. Smh
Doesn’t help they outsource such important roles overseas.
Yes to India
Just got a text from truist. Saying suspicious activity has locked your account. Sign in to regain access
U ever get back in
Could be a scam man
Beyond terrible. I'm very sorry 😞.
Now suntrust has merged with Truist. I just found that out last week. So, BB&T and Suntrust are Truist.
Mega banks are not making it better! It’s time for the government to step in and stop the constant merging!
Suntrust didnt merge with Truist, it is Truist. Suntrust and BB&T merged then the company that resulted from the merger of both companies took the name Truist.
@@Kev4Kev I’ve been with BB& T for over 15 years. Just recently they changed to Truist. I do Auto Payoffs for a dealership and both suntrust and BB& T were separate entities. Now all payoffs are made to Truist.
@@lisafilly464 I just explained it did you not compehend it? They became one company back in 2019 by merging the two companies which were BB&T and Suntrust after they merged they became one company which had the name Truist Financial. Each bank was operated seperately until around October of 2021. Everything was intergrated in late 2021 or early 2022 depending on where you are located. Suntrust did not merged with Truist, there as no Truist until BB&T and Sunrtust merged.
What you stated about Suntrust merging with Truist is not correct. Suntrust merged with BB&T and then after they merged the new company took the name Truist.
