Easy access app

Easy access no need to que in the bank anymore Reviewed on: 6th April 2018

easy to use

4
an easy, no-frills bank account that pays you rewards every month Reviewed on: 4th April 2018

A reasonable current account

3
I've never had any real problems. The online banking is easy and seems secure. However, I am going to miss Kaspersky when my free account runs out.The other benefits are not great but with a premier account and Blue rewards you pay £3 a month and get paid back £7(? !). there are other tiny treats - mostly negligible. Their saving and investment products give a poor return. Reviewed on: 8th March 2018

Banking good. Customer service, no so good

3
Banked for 15 years, always been a good firm for money, app, accessibility etc. Customer service has always let it done though. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2018
