I just tried to cash a check, written on a Regions Bank account, and written to my husband, who had endorsed it.  All I should have had to do was put my endorsement on it and show my driver's license.  The teller was rude. "No, he has to come in," she said.  "But he's at work," I told her. No "I am sorry, that's our policy" or anything like that.  I told her none of my money would ever be going to her bank.  The check was only for $60.

If you were smart you would've deposited the check then withdrew cash in two transactions. There is not a bank out there that you can cash a check and not be the payee whether it's endoresed or not (duh!)

Would post an negative review if possible. THEY TOOK $6000 FROM ME AND HELD IT 2 DAYS AFTER I DEPOSITED IT (TOOK IT BACK OUT OF MY ACCT), untill I could notify the other person on the check and have them verify their idenity. They said that they should have told me when I deposited the check but their tellers are not up on all of the rules (Not my problem). So now I can't even get the check back. Then after 3 days on the phone with them and being lied to (Said they think Wachovia was the one that had the hold). This was not the case and they knew all along. Avoid this bank at all cost. If you are looking for the Best Bank In Town, I can tell you to take your business elsewhere, because this one is far from the best.

i had an account with them a few years back anbd it lasted maybe 1 year. yes they have alot of locations but their fees were crazy and they were very deceptive about tacking on compounded ATM fees (non BB&T). they reported me to the credit bureau until i paid these jerks $300 in fees i felt were not justified just to clear my name. i gave the branch manager in inwood, WV a piece of my mind and i never once stepped in another BB&T ever since.

i have a friend who told me afterwards he had similar experiences at a branch in vienna, va. the branch just wants to suck as much $ as they can and are extremely rude.

ANY bank is better than they are!!
AVOID BB&T LIKE THE PLAGUE!!

Used to be happy with them - not so much anymore.

Vacation Property. Joint account to cover the bills on siad vacation property.  Walked in the door with a USD Bank Draft for $3,000 payable to both parties on the account and tried to deposit it.

No.  They want the signature of BOTH people on the back.  S'cuse me?  What do you do when we mail the deposit in as we usually do?  No-one in their right mind would endorse the BACK of a cheque and THEN drop it in the mail.  What new brand of stupidity is this please?
Deceiving and discriminating treatment from a client specialist. WTH!

I have been a checking account holder at BB&T for quite sometime now. One day I applied for a credit card. All my pertinent documents were copied by the client specialist at Williamston, NC. Then she told me to wait for her call before 4pm of that same day. It failed to happen. After 17 (seventeen) days of waiting, I appeared directly to the branch. The client specialist did not meet me face to face. The employee who approached me said that they need a credit verification. She once again got a copy of my ssn card. Nothing happened after that until the 3rd month! A letter from the Williamston, NC branch (signed by that same client rep) was sent to me stating that my application was declined. Then after a week I received a phone call from BB&T asking me to avail of their other service. I felt like I was slapped left and right and up and down. I felt like I was shaking uncontrollably because of too much intimidation that I received from this bank.

If you were in my place, would you still bank with BB&T?

Bad Experiences with BBT in Summerville

I am co-owner of a bank account with BBT in Summerville.  I have never had a good experience with this bank.  The arrogance of the staff is unmatched.  I have placed 3 phone calls about an error charging us for a safety deposit box which was closed at the Trion branch last year.  Not one response has been received.  My last in person visit, I waited to speak to a rep for over 30 minutes, and finally was able to see another woman who I flagged down in the lobby.
Stay away from this branch.

I had banked with BB&T for 17 years, but when an issue arose, they made mistake after mistake and kept charging me for services that I had either already paid, or were supposed to be free with my account. When I asked to close all my accounts there, they retaliated by reporting me to Equifax in an attempt to ruin my credit. All they care about is sucking as much money out of the little guy that they can get away with.DO NOT BANK WITH BB&T - THEY ARE NO GOOD!!!!!!

High school student opened debit card and bought CD. After about a year, he ran out of money on his debit card and did not realize it (wasn't using online banking then.) Within 2 days, he overdrafted his debit card 6 times before the notice came by mail. This was his first offense. BB&T charged $35 per occurrance ($210!) They would not negotiate one bit even when parents went in and politely placed reasonable request. We will never bank here again. Advise your students not to as well.

Doesn't surprise me.  I am looking for another bank as we speak. I deposited a cashiers check drawn on another local bank on Saturday. It is Wednesday morning and the funds are just now available to me. In the mean time I was charged $36 4 times for overdraft fees even though they are supposed to move money from my credit line to cover overdrafts.  I guess they decided more profitable to pay them themselves.  Funny three of those overdraft charges show the same date as my large cashiers check deposit.  If the money was available why did I overdraft?  I've only banked with bbt a little over a year and I'm done with them as of today
