Poor value compared to other savings providers We have a number of savings accounts. Atom bank has been the worst by far in terms of offering one rate and then dropping the rate. Do not recommend Reviewed on: 9th March 2026

Review of the Atom Bank, Savings:

Love it why not!

Love how easy it was to open an account and move money when needed, with great interest rates why not. Reviewed on: 21st April 2025

Great rate

Great rate, easy App, although the new rates are not so good Reviewed on: 9th November 2018

Incompetent

Problems, issues, lies but no videotape to record it all. Avoid atom bank if you value your sanity. Reviewed on: 15th October 2018

Unable to log in to app so can't access account

Like 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. Reviewed on: 10th October 2018

Still issues with App & advice

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 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. Reviewed on: 1st August 2018

Opening account with Samsung Note 4

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. Reviewed on: 15th June 2018

Declined Application

Just 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! Reviewed on: 30th May 2018

Does what it says on the tin

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 Reviewed on: 4th April 2018

Refusing to return my savings

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. Reviewed on: 7th March 2018

If I can't get the App to even open, how reliable is this bank with my money

I 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? Reviewed on: 1st March 2018
