Son will be closing account based off the interactions with the female inside teller today at Ogden location.Curly hair, brunette. She is abrasive and rude. Who works as a teller with that attitude? Never been treated this way by the McClanahan branch ever.

Truist’s own website for this location states that the branch is open until 6pm on Fridays. Upon arrival at 5pm sharp, the doors were locked and we were told the branch closes at 5pm and there’s nothing they can do about the times listed on the website.

I've been sitting at the drive thru window for 10 minutes. I watch as 2 employees stand around with NO customers. The teller working drive thru is busy. No team work to get customers on their way.

I visited Truist on Ogden Road on a Friday in early afternoon, as I had a CD maturing. Upon entering, I noted staffing was not plentiful. I was asked to wait by a teller at the window. After 15 minutes, there were many in line behind me, with some leaving in frustration. When I was assisted, I was told the system that was needed to complete my transaction was not available, and there were no "desk" staff available to assist. I was given a phone number to call on Monday morning to see if the system was working, before coming back. Google sent me to the next nearest Truist across from Towers mall, but I found that branch had closed permanently about a week ago. I drove to the branch on McClanahan, and tried to get into the lobby. The lobby doors were locked, and they were only serving drive thru customers this day Totally frustrated, I drove to the Brambleton location, waited about 10 minutes in teller line, then about 20 minutes to see a "desk" bank associate. My request was carried out smoothly, but I did not realize until at my next destination, that the associate had not given me my driver's license back, requiring a return visit! Truist, this is not Customer Service, and I'm glad to have closed that account, and gotten rid of you!

Already not trust worthy i deposited my check in to my account yesterday on Saturday and today Sunday the money no where in sight and they are closed on Sunday. SunTrust never did any dirt stuff like this. Stay away from this location.

For basic needs, (savings, checkings) - this bank is fine. There are tons of Suntrust in Roanoke, so I never feel helpless if I need to stop by.

SunTrust use to be a bank with exceptional service, professionally dressed staff, and convenient store locations as well as branches. Those days are over. Long time in lines was because of numerous customers banking the same time as you and a full staff working to get through them as quick as possible while not neglecting service and personal attention. Today, long waits are due to undertrained, underperforming - and understaffed on top of it - tellers. One branch had two tellers CONSISTENTLY for the noon lunch rush. One at the window, and one for in store customers... That became real fun when a person with lengthy multiple business bank account transactions and five bank bags was three customers in front of you tying up the line. SunTrust WAS a good bank, but I want a bank that IS a good bank. They can keep the nostalgia of "the good ole days," but they'll make some serious changes if they want to keep my accounts.

Bank somewhere else. Suntrust used to be a pretty decent bank. In the three scant years since I closed my account, Suntrust seems to have lost all semblance of customer service. I recently moved back South. Unfortunately, Citibank, my main bank, does not have branches in Roanoke. I figured I'd reopen an account with Suntrust, since they seemed decent enough a few years back. In between 2014 and 2017, it appears Suntrust stopped caring. It took a while to see someone. There was a single banker, named Heather, available for nonteller transactions when I arrived, and she was busy with someone else. From what I could overhear (the banker desks aren't exactly private), the customer was having some issue with identity theft. Fine. But I have to assume the Heather knew I was there; my head would have been visible from Heather's vantage, and it's not like I'd be sitting in the waiting chairs because I just walked in off the streets and needed a breather. Yet, Heather persisted in engaging in time consuming, extraneous banter with the woman she was assisting. That's fine when there's no one waiting, but it's not fine when someone is waiting for help on a lunch break. I set up an account. Heather insisted on trying to sell products I don't want. No, I don't want a Suntrust credit card. No, I don't need a fancier account. (I have a high-account with my main bank, and if we move back to an area with Citi locations, I have every intention of punting Suntrust and only using Citi.) No, I don't need a mortgage right now. I just need a brick-and-mortar bank nearby. After too much time, Heathr opens up a regular account for me. Two weeks later, I deposit a check from my former landlord. You know, real shady people. (That's sarcasm.) The check is drawn from a major bank. Suntrust's mobile deposit system doesn't work well (another strike), so I deposit the check at a brick-and-mortar branch--exactly the reason why I wanted a local bank anyway. A day later, I find out that Suntrust has placed a week's hold on the check. I don't need the money now, but the fact that Suntrust has placed a hold on the check suggests it doesn't value my business. Now, you say, they placed the hold because you have a new account! Sure, that is the reason. But it's a poor reason. It's not like I'm unknown to Suntrust: I had an account with them for three or four years in the not-so-distant past. Rather than reflexively block, look at my past history. The Bank Secrecy Act requires retention of most bank records for five years, so as long as Suntrust is in compliance with federal law, it's not like they can't look back. And the check is a commercial check for a commercially reasonable amount, not a hand-scribbled check for $75,000 from Jim Bob Jones. So I call Suntrust. Here's what immediately strikes me: They've outsourced their call center. It used to be that you call a bank, you get a native English speaker. It sounds like they've outsourced their call center to the Indian subcontinent or the Philippines. (Contrast with, say, Discover, where you know you're going to get someone from the states, often from Salt Lake City.) The real kicker is that they still have banker-like customer service hours. It's not like they're staffing with foreign reps on off hours: They're doing it in the middle of the bank day. That's not good customer service. I nicely let the agent of the problem, and suggest three solutions: (1) release the funds the next business day, (2) provide a letter within two business days detailing reasons specific to either me or the landlord why the check is suspect or, (3) lose my business. Of course, customer reps in India aren't given any power, so she has to check with the back office. The back office tells me to pound sand. I ask to speak with the back office. She says that's not possible. Of course, why would you want customers speaking with anyone who has actual power? So, I&

In the three scant years since I closed my account (I had moved to an area where Suntrust does not have branches), Suntrust seems to have lost all semblance of customer service.
