I noticed some fraudulent transactions on my account and noticed they've been occuring for a few months. Called truist customer ********************** to file a claim, they promptly canceled my debit card and issued a new card.I was told on the call that I could only dispute the last 6months based on the age of the charges and trust policy. I accepted because that was better than nothing A couple weeks later I received a letter stating the claim was being denied because it was outside the window to file a claim Called customer ********************** and was told that the claim was denied because the transactions were older than 30days old. After going back and forth on this as this is the first I'm hearing of this, I asked about the transactions that were under 30days old and why those ones were also denied. I was informed that because the first of the transactions was over 30 days every other one in that series would also be denied and that was truist policy I've never heard of anything this ridiculous and asked to be provided with the policy information but the representative was unable to provide any policy information to show that as official truist policyBusiness Response

My mortgage went up almost $200 and Truist is unable to explain why. My property taxes actually went down by $1500. Insurance went from $3665 to $3,724. Numbers don't add up to a $200 a month increase. Representative lacked basic accounting skills and was only able to read the fields on her screen.Business Response

Today I received two emails from Truist alerting me that my "credit" application was denied, but that an email of mine had been added to a Truist account. I did none of this -- this is identity theft/******** the emails I received from Truist, it says, "If you or an authorized user made this change, no further action is required. If you don't recognize this change, please call us." I have just spent 30 minutes trying to call. None of this company's fraud hotlines or phone numbers allow you to speak with someone unless you have an account. But someone just tried to open a Truist account in my name, so I cannot reach the company because of their phone tree system. I need to speak to someone at Truist -- and their phone tree system needs to be fixed!Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
1) I am being asked by the BBB to accept Truist's response within 5 days. Truist's response is that they will be in touch within 15 days. There is no guarantee that they will reply satisfactorily (or at all) within 15 days, so I cannot accept their current (non)response.2) The form they sent asking me to fill out asks for my bank account number with them. Part of my issue with ********************** is that I DO NOT have an account with them. As such, their recent reply suggests my message has not yet been read. This is a form response.

I opened two accounts on 4/26/25. One account is a personal checking, and the other a money market account. I deposited more than 29k into my personal checking account as my opening deposit, all funds have cleared and are available. However on Monday 4/28/25 Truist closed all my accounts and have yet to return my deposit. I have reached out multiple times and Truist has not returned my money to me.Business Response

I have a personal loan with Truist. My monthly payment is just under $600. Every month I make a payment but may not be able to pay the full amount sometimes. On 3 occasions Truist has automatically without my consent or knowledge removed money from my checking account for this loan. Which ultimately puts my account negative. The most recent was 4/28/2025 I made a payment of $500 the total due including past due was $950.50. I planned to make an additional payment when I was paid next. But Truist automatically took the full $950.50 without my knowledge or consent and put my checking account $714 negative. Truist has never called me or my husband to discuss the loan or past due amounts. When I called them they told me its in my contract that they can remove the money after 45 days or no payment. But each month I have made a payment so it has not fallen 45 days late. I want Truist to refund all the late charges they have incrued due to them pulling money with out consent.Business Response
