5/3 Bank sucks! They are constantly raping people's bank accounts. If the money is deposited and they decide you have overdrawn--even though it is there, they will take your money. They just do not care about the customer. Run from this company. I will be your worst customer service night...

The fee's at 5/3 bank are ASTRONOMICAL. To me it is absolutely ridiculous that they can debit an account immediately, but not honor deposits. This is ONLY a way for the bank to make money. It dishearten's me that a bank in this country can actually run this way. They also deduct everything...

I have had a horrible experience with Fifth Third and would only recommend them as a last option. My experience began with them 3 years ago. A year into our relationship their business advisors informed me of business option they could offer me to help facilitate my international business. Six...

My husband and I have had an account with First Charter for 7 years. This past year, 5/3 bank took over and we have had nothing but problems. It is true that they will hold transactions for days and hold deposits so that charges will go in before direct deposits. My husband and I both have direct...

Then I was charged a returned check fee ($39) x 3 from the other guys. Then I had a bunch of small other fees and it was just overwhelming...

5/3 compromised my debt card so we were told a new card would be shipping out. My husband and I did not receive our cards. They could not take my husband word that I did not receive mine, so I had to call in. They confirmed my address and said they would active my current card until I received...

I am a first time home buyer. Since I "did" all my banking at 5/3 I thought why not get a home loan through them..what a nitemare! Promised me the world and couldn't deliver. The agent that was helping me was completely incompitent. Never got back to me when he said he would....

5/3 bank changed the way their debit cards are categorized and after their change to separate the debit card from the over-draft card they began to zing me with overdraft fees totaling almost $900 in a one week period. They then sent me a letter notifying me of the change after the fees had...

All I can say is WOW. Every time I have to deal with this bank I want to pull my hair out. I will not go into detail because I'd have to write a book! They DO NOT CARE about their customers. If I said that they were unorganized, I'd be giving them a compliment. I've had so many...

Please avoid 5/3 Bank. They bought out the First Charter locations in NC. Since the buyout, the service of what was once a good friendly caring back has turned very sour. Fee, fees, fees for everything. But the best is what they did to me. They allowed 15k to be taken out of my business account...
