🔥 Conversation: “Bank Watch”
Let’s talk—because this affects every small business owner.
How many of us were told to “just open an account” at a big-name bank and everything would fall into place?
Chase, JP Morgan Bank
Bank of America
Truist Bank (formally SunTrust Bank)
PNC Bank
Wells Fargo Bank
Capital One
Truth is, many banks aren’t building relationships with small businesses—they’re building profit from them.
While your deposits work overnight for the institution, when you need flexibility, support, or understanding… silence.
So here’s the real question 👇🏽
Has your bank ever truly supported your business—or only benefited from it?
Have you experienced:
• Unexpected account holds
• Sudden fee increases
• Frozen funds
• Lack of lending access
• Poor customer support
• Account closures with little explanation
Not forgetting charging a $34.00 overdraft fee on a $6.47 payment.
A customer just informed me not 10 minutes ago that while disputing the fee in escalations it was reiterated the fee she was charged for that $6.47 unauthorized overdraft was normal
banking practice (uuuhm) really Chase.
So now this bank has taken $27.53 out
of her account bounced a scheduled payment and now throwing her account into total chao.
We’re opening the conversation as part of The DWA Group’s Bank Watch series, and we want to hear from real business owners.

This isn’t about bashing banks—it’s about educating entrepreneurs so we can make better decisions about where we place our money.
Because as we all know…
money talks—and it’s time we listen.
Place a tag to your bank.
Every bank should recognize their hashtag:
