The Co-operative Bank Current account reviews (412)

recovering well from infiltration

the co-op is back after its flirtation with the nastier side of banking Reviewed on: 10th February 2018

Miss

excellent basic bank account, does everything you need it to do Reviewed on: 10th February 2018

No problems!

I've been a customer of many banks in the UK and abroad and Co-op Bank has been the easiest to deal with. Reviewed on: 9th February 2018

Ethical banking

Easy to set up and great ethics when the banking industry in general is shocking. Reviewed on: 9th February 2018

Excellent customer service

I always receive excellent customer service in branch and on the phone. Reviewed on: 9th February 2018

basic bank account

no touch and pay on my current card Reviewed on: 8th February 2018

fairly good phone customer service

good when you need to contact by phone but online banking never in real time and site constantly under repair Reviewed on: 7th February 2018

good customer service

I switched to the co-op after bad customer experience at my previous bank. Co-op customer service is very good, you get a native English speaker not someone in a call centre thousands of miles away, and they genuinely try to solve your problems rather than parroting a script. Reviewed on: 7th February 2018

brillliant app, great online access

just love the access and simplicity of this account - I can move money on the go, check my balance, it's perfect Reviewed on: 6th February 2018

Simples

Simple no frills account that is simple with an easy to use online banking system. Reviewed on: 31st January 2018
