USELESS

Have today tried to open a 1 year fixed rate account at 2%. App told me I couldn't. Called their helpline number and was told there could be a number of reasons for this. The main one seemed to be my current account was too old. First time in 34 years any bank and I have a number of accounts has refused to take Money off me. Reviewed on: 9th March 2017

Frustrating!!!!!

I can't download the app on my Galaxy S5 phone despite trying several times. It is supposed to be compatible with my phone but a message shows advising it isn't when I try to download the app. Reviewed on: 9th March 2017

Reply from Atom Bank Fantastic! Great to have you onboard Response date: 22nd March 2017

No Worries

I opened my opened my one year fixed rate account easily" . 2% interest is great when you compare it to others. Best deal around and fully secure. It's a no brainer! Wife struggled because her store card was underwritten by another company and we didn't recognise it but went to checkmyfile.com,got it sorted and now we have two accounts opened. Facial recognition can be a bit dodgy, but you can also use voice recognition, or number code to login so no worries whatsoever. Excellent! Reviewed on: 4th March 2017

Shambles

Have now tried twice to open a fixed rate bond with different email addresses. No luck. Contacted bank twice on their chat line. Hopeless. Looked back at the number of adverse reviews - there are many. Someone in authority should take a hard look at their customer service. Not for me now. Don't trust them. Reviewed on: 4th March 2017

Simple, easy & fast account set up and funding and leading interest rates

First time I have ever set up an funded a new savings account within an hour with a new provider. Move savings to them due to the rate - but process has been faultless Reviewed on: 28th February 2017

Gave up

Gave up trying to open fixed deposit account ...couldn't get past the identity checks and no one can explain why nor follow up to resolve Reviewed on: 27th February 2017

Better than all the rest banks and building societies!

Only found out about this UK bank today and immediately opened a small Fixed Term/Fixed Interest Rate account. Where else can you get this great rate on deposit with UK FCS cover?Fairly easy to setup on my android phone although the voice recognition part took several tries before it was happy with my voice. Cash sent from my linked bank account this evening so hope to see it in my new Atom account tomorrow. Reviewed on: 27th February 2017
