Review of the Chetwood Bank, Savings:

easy to use app

easy to use app / shame that interest rate has recently come down Reviewed on: 11th February 2025

Easy to set up and deal with.

4
I found out about Chetwood Bank through the Martin Lewis website. The interest rate was excellent and the decision to set it up was very straightforward. It was a little unusual that any credit or deposit can only be made through one nominated account, but not a great problem. I was a little annoyed when I discovered the Barclays connection, which I had been boycotting. Chetwood Bank itself answered all my queries with speed and without fuss.

Good savings rates, but limited withdrawal options

4
I’ve been using this bank for a few months, and their savings rates are definitely a highlight – currently they offer some of the best rates for an easy access account. The website is user-friendly, making it easy to manage my account and track my savings. However, I’ve found the withdrawal options a bit limiting. You can only make one withdrawal request per day, and it takes a full day for the money to be available, which can be a bit inconvenient. I haven’t had to contact customer support yet, so I can't speak to that experience, but overall, I’m satisfied with the savings aspect. Reviewed on: 26th January 2025

Issues getting a text code to log in

To log in there are often issues with receiving a text code to keep you waiting and then they may come all at once and which one do you use. Get it wrong and you're locked out. Reviewed on: 26th January 2025

Money transfer not instant but rate good

Takes time for money to transfer over but otherwise fine. Good rate. Reviewed on: 26th January 2025

Easy and straightforward. I like being able to log in every month to see how much interest has accumulated. Reviewed on: 26th January 2025
