Moved after fraud dispute

I was the victim of fraud. They told me they couldn’t find any evidence it wasn’t me who spent the money. Out of character spending and products being bought and their efforts to investigate were poor Reviewed on: 17th February 2023

Rude and unprofessional

This bank was the only bank in the village. Whenever I needed to access or deposit money in branch the customer service team were very rude and condescending. Now they no longer have a branch open in walking distance. Reviewed on: 16th February 2023
