Formed from the merger of BB&T and SunTrust, Truist is one of the largest financial services holding companies in the US.
I've had both good and bad experiences with Truist Financial. Day-to-day banking is fine and the app works. However, I had a terrible experience trying to dispute a charge - it took weeks and multiple calls to resolve. The resolution was fair in the end but the process was frustrating.
Pros: App works well for daily banking
Cons: Dispute resolution process is slow and painful
Truist Financial does the basics well enough. My current account works fine, cards work abroad, and I haven't experienced any security issues. But they don't offer anything that really stands out from competitors. Interest rates are middling and the rewards program is underwhelming.
Pros: Reliable basics, international card works well
Cons: Nothing that stands out, low interest rates
Using Truist Financial for my personal and business accounts. The business banking side is especially good - statements are clear, international payments work well, and the relationship manager assigned to me is knowledgeable. Personal banking side is average but reliable. Would recommend for business customers.
Pros: Great business banking, clear statements, good RM
Cons: Personal banking is just average
Been with Truist Financial for about 18 months. Overall a very good experience. The online banking works well, savings rates are decent, and I had no issues when applying for an overdraft. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is their customer service can be a bit slow during busy periods.
Pros: Reliable service, good rates, easy overdraft
Cons: Customer service wait times
