Simply the best customer service!

Brilliant customer service, really feel valued by them, love all the extras they offer, life skills, digital eagle etc, compared to the other 2 high street banks I'm with they also have the best mobile banking app by far!! Only gripe I have is I wish they would let us use Google Pay instead of their solution, GPay simply works so much better! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
