There actually was and still is a movement for people to boycott the mega-banks and to move more money into credit unions. There have been a few over the past couple of years, but most recently was the one earlier this month. I believe it was on November 5th, and I've heard it referred to by a few different names, like "Move Your Money Day" or simply the "Bank of America Boycott."
But to address your larger point: you're right. I think The Tea Party (if it's still a thing) and OWS would have a lot to gain by reconciling their differences. If fact I wouldn't be surprised to find out that a lot of former Tea Partiers joined Occupy. I imagine that there is some significant overlap between the two groups.
