I received a phone call this afternoon at 2:01 pm, stating from Apple and my phone had been compromised and don't use my banking app till I spoke with a tech. I hung up without punching the number they told me to. Please let me know if this was a scam.

Scam.
Apple won't call you by phone unless you asked them to call you back.
See this article:
Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support
I don't think your device is compromised but, to feel more comfortable, you can follow the steps provided in this support guide:

Apple won't call you unless you've filled out a request for a phone call here on their website.
It was a scam.
