Not a lot positive about Co-op bank The only positive thing about Co-op bank is the fact that it's a lot more ethical than other banks. However, the switch process is extremely slow and ... Read more Reviewed on: 28th November 2024

Still notanswering emails, unacceptable in the electronic world

1
The Coop has not answered one mail. Pretty pathetic. I had a letter from the Head of Customer services. If any person in authority signs a letter to you, they must be accesible. This person apparently does not exist. She has no phone number, email or contact address. Responsible Officers of any compant, entity, etc, must be contactable. She cannot be contacted!

Doesn't reply to emails, Customer Services.

County Court Judgement for £175. Parking ticket from 2014, Judged by CC in 2017. Original ticket misdescribed car colour and Index number. All dealt with whilst I was out of the country for 3 months. I have provided evidence to Co-op. They recently cancelled my overdraft. I tried to appeal, but the person who signed the letter, Joanne Mayer, Head of Customer Contact, doesn't exist! No phone number, no email, cannot be contacted through Co-Op Customer Services. I recently wrote to the Coop board about this, 4 times! NO acknowledgement, well apart from automatic reply. The AGM was held recently, seems they were more interested in senior management and board, remuneration and bonuses. Very dissapointed, they are awarding huge salaries and bonuses, but cant be bothered to look at a shocking injustice. The company, MIL Collections, has gone round the cOuntry buying up old tickets for as little as £1.00, Rushing them to court, for a Judgement. This has forced a change in the Law in May, that oblidges them to prove contact with Owner of Vehicles. They were recently fined in court following admitting to Forging Original Ticket Issuers details. Giving letters and contacts with falce names. The Coop is assisting these, bottom feeders to claim false charges. NO one at the Coop Bank seems interested. Oh apartfrom Salaries and Bonuses. I thought they were the Peoples Bank, how stupid am I.

Always find them very helpful

I always find their UK only call centers very helpful and their online banking is super easy to use Reviewed on: 2nd June 2018

Worst bank ever !!!!!

1
Bank does not send my card out when it is nearing expiry and when asked why they state it is to prompt me contacting them. If the need to speak with me so much why do they not call me? Not ethical and not thinking of the customer so we will see what the ombudsman has to say about this. Reviewed on: 13th March 2018

Hopeless Customer Service
