Close Brothers Savings Savings reviews (4858)

straightforward, efficient, customer-friendly service

5
Close Brothers provide a no-fuss, no-frills, no-hassle service. They treat their clients as sensible adults. They are evidently focused on the core objective - which is providing an uncomplicated, well-managed, competitive, and user-friendly banking and savings facility. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019

Safe and competitive

5
An established name offering security and competitive rates Reviewed on: 11th January 2019

Close Bros are consistantly the closest to our customer service expectation, and we deal with very many financial organisations that don't come up to the mark.

5
It's quite simple. When you ring up for help or assistance you get it, and that occurs even if the question is a difficult one. It is also the case that Close Bros are always well towards the top of the interest rates' chart, which indicates that customers rather than pure profit do come first. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019

My kind of bank!

5
Easy to deal with, no frills . They tell you what they are going to do and go ahead and do it. Interest rates are always very good Reviewed on: 11th January 2019
