Seamless

5
Since switching from Lloyds, I find the internet banking seamless with loads of instant rewards. Also, I’m happy that my purchases appear immediately & money are deducted giving me a balance that is reliable. I find this very frustrating with Lloyds, the deductions are not immediate & account balance not reliable if I make any purchases. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
