Lousy interest

Long term customer, no incentives to stay and very low interest rate on current account. Could do better. Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

BoS is an easy and simple bank.

BoS provides most of the information you will ever require online via their website or app. It’s easy to check your account, make changes like adding new product, and set limits on your cards. Reviewed on: 18th July 2022

GREEDY BANK THAT GIVES YOU NOTHING BUT STRESS

THE BANK THAT STEALS & MAKES MONEY OF THE DISABLED This bank has taken my money and holding onto this for two weeks, expect no customer service, make fun of the disabled, provide incorrect information, worst banking group,worst service, Reviewed on: 24th May 2022

Setting up account first impressions count

Applied for a new account filling out all details online, account was created and received card, pin and security code in post took 1 week. Tried to set up online banking. Security code doesn't work so applied for another took 1 week to arrive. Try again on the app and get to a step to enter memorable data, nothing telling you what format this should be in. Log on via PC eventually get past this step. Then the service tries to call you for security but apparently no phone number is linked to the account, I'm looking at it on the copy of the application form! Call customer services 20:00 Friday night, wait over 25 mins. Told to add a phone number to the account I need to be at a higher level of security and they will send out another code taking 5 days. The only positive was that the member of staff was really efficient at closing my account presumably because they have so many unhappy customers they have to do it so often.

Long term current account

I have banked with BoS since leaving school. I have always found them rock solid and reliable. Recent history has been underwhelming with product interest rates. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
