reliable and usable banking app

5
The banking apphas an excellent user interface and allows customer to see balances, transfer money, pay invoices, as you would expect. There is also the ability to set a limit on ATM withdrawals, freeze cards and limit type of purchases by card. All in all a very useful app, for when you cannot or do not wish to visit the bank. You can even pay in cheques using a photo. Reviewed on: 8th August 2023

Lack of branches

3
When I opened my account initially there were many branches to go to, however now I have only 1 in my town of Eastbourne, It is not conveniently located end necessitates driving into town. To further frustrate me they have now updated their computer log in, so I'm unable to use my I-pad to access my account. Reviewed on: 15th July 2023

Terrible bank

1
I experienced a frustrating situation with my bank that caused significant financial hardship. They imposed restrictions on my account, citing the need for a form to be completed in order to enhance our relationship. Despite promptly filling out and submitting the form, I have not received any resolution. The automated customer service representatives at their call centers were uncooperative and unhelpful. Considering my nearly 25-year-long association with this bank, I have decided to switch to a different bank as soon as possible. Reviewed on: 12th July 2023
