Incredibly ethical, people for purpose centred back

An unrivaled ethical policy, supporting excellent charities Reviewed on: 25th February 2021

Always there, always reliable

I have been with this bank for 54 years and they have always been efficient and trustworthy. On the very odd occasion when things didn't go as they should they were very prompt to put them right. All that and monthly rewards too! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

NOT THE FUTURE OF BANKING !

Been with the coop bank for 16 years. Nothing to shout about. Changed banks as I had noticed suspicious activity on my account. Coop did reimburse me but I lost my trust in them. They don't operate 24/ 7 anymore, yes I know we have the app. Changed to Starling app fantastic I can lock my account down so no one can use and balances really time. Starling is the future of banking in my opinion Reviewed on: 17th February 2021

Great bank with a conscience. Has a strong ethos for investing responsibly and giving back to the community. Customer service is excellent and app is very user friendly. Reviewed on: 17th February 2021

Top bank

Great bank with great perks . Lots done for the planet and environment in general Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Worst online of any bank I've used, and no longer ethical

I've used probably around 10 online banks for myself, my family and for companies, including the likes of NatWest, HSBC, Barclays, Unity Trust, BBVA, Santander and so on. By some LONG margin, the co-op is the worst of the lot. I was OK with previous (also worst ranking) online because they used to be an ethical bank, and so I put up with its foibles. But they rolled out a new one which is significantly less usable than the last one (on the verge of unusable), which when combined with their severely less ethical credentials means there really is no reason to be with this bank any more. Avoid. Reviewed on: 18th December 2020

Easy change

Just changed my current account to a joint one. Very quick and simple to do . Reviewed on: 23rd November 2020

A new look that drives away business customers?!

I never write reviews, certainly not ranting negative ones but I am so cross and disappointed in the COOP I need to vent. I was a happy loyal customer but 'upgrading' to a totally unusable online interface means I have to take two businesses elsewhere - and I don't have the time. You even piloted this new dashboard with one of our accounts - didn't ask for feedback, didn't listen when I queried things by phone and still rolled it out to all customers. It is NOT fit for purpose. Reviewed on: 5th October 2020

Businesses banking just got worst

Did a 8 years old design this .Great if you love colours and big font . But try it as a business tool daily Paying BASC to customers many times in one day . The top brass at Co op must be crazy . Reviewed on: 22nd September 2020
