Atom Bank aims to be fair and transparent, and act in the best interests of its customers...a bank that "really doesn't act like a bank at all."

I love Atom and can't understand why more savers don't take the plunge and put their money there. They offer good interest rates. It was really easy to set up and I love the app, it's friendly and has never failed to work. What is there not to love.
Opened my fixed saver account - was updated along the way by the app and it was really useful to check where I was at different stages. Rate was fantastic and I felt I could trust Atom
Great rate on opening but poor rate on renewal
The bank offers great rates and also has a great app for access to accounts.
Spent days researching. Signed in and set up account ok but then told owing to a thin credit file my application was declined. Even though I was looking to put money in not take it out. Asked to have my data removed but told they can't do that for 6...
Read moreSpent days researching. Signed in and set up account ok but then told owing to a thin credit file my application was declined. Even though I was looking to put money in not take it out. Asked to have my data removed but told they can't do that for 6 years even though I got declined. Staggering.
It was our first time applying for a mortgage and they made the whole process so simple. They offered us a great deal and assigned us a fantastic solicitor. I would, and have, recommend them to friends
Great rate, easy App, although the new rates are not so good
Problems, issues, lies but no videotape to record it all. Avoid atom bank if you value your sanity.

Read moreLike many other people, I have tried to log in and keep getting that "This shouldn't have happened" message. I rang the bank and a very helpful person tried to get me logged in, then took me through clearing data, then adding my device, then deleting and reinstalling the app. Nothing helped. She has sent my problem to the IT department and said it might take up to two days for them to contact me. This is extremely poor and frustrating. Reason enough to close my account when it matures and not open any more with Atom Bank. Disappointing.
As other reviews mentioned, the app is poorly designed. If you can’t log in, it ask you to try again, and again, and again. No further advice ever appears. There is a help button that gives the customer service telephone number. They told me that they ...
Read moreAs other reviews mentioned, the app is poorly designed. If you can’t log in, it ask you to try again, and again, and again. No further advice ever appears. There is a help button that gives the customer service telephone number. They told me that they cannot help until there system can see you have failed to log in. So they stayed on the line while I tried another 5 times to log in, but they couldn’t see it in their system, so they said they have to investigate further.
The first time I attempted to open the account the app got stuck on checking my voice recording and I had to force the app to close. Tried again the following morning and everything worked, even on my old phone.

Read moreJust tried to open an account and my wife has been declined. Apparently they cannot verify her details yet we have lived at the address for just under 20 years. It sound like she has no credit history so I guess if she had huge debts she would have been accepted. But on the other hand there wouldn't have been 80k to invest!
I went for the one year saver and it was easy to set up and they kept me informed all the way through and transferred my money back when the time was up 10 out of ten

Read more I have a Moto G phone, one of the few on the permitted list. I managed to log in with the app after 3 or 4 attempts. 6 months later Atom updated the app and it stopped working. I phoned them and obtained an undertaking that I could give them my maturity instructions over the phone. A year later, just before maturity, I phoned and, after some resistance, Atom took my instructions. I was assured my funds would be paid out on the due date. But they weren’t. When I complained they said they did not have a record of my phone call and, anyway, they do not accept instructions over the phone. So what do you do if a bank refuses to hand back your money?
Update:
Sent Atom a stern email and they transferred my funds to my bank. Made a formal Complaint, so we'll see.
Update:
Atom: "can we close the Complaint?"
Me: "what are your findings?"
Atom: "a colleague didn't fully capture your instructions".
Me: "she made a mistake, right?"
Atom, "er, yes. We're very sorry".
No compensation was offered. I didn't bother asking for any. I won't be going near Atom again.

Read moreI would desperately like to open a fixer saver except I can't get the App to work on either an iPhone or an iPad. Stuck in a loop telling me to 'Please Wait' or 'Oops that shouldn't have happened'. Customer services just told me to uninstall and reinstall the App - no luck. How safe is my money? Is this a mickey mouse bank?
Cant log into my account, App keeps sending me in a loop. Site down now until the 22nd!!
Very pleased with Atom, and very attractive saving rates. However the app is too complex and could be simplified

so easy to set up a online account that pays a good rate of interest well at todays rates at least
