Review of the The Co-operative Bank, Current Account:

been with them over 25 years

ive always had a great experience with the coop, expecially their customer service. whenever ive had a problem theyve always gone over and above to solve it - especially when i had a fraud incident - stolen money was returned within minutes. Reviewed on: 13th January 2022

Green and easy

Co-op Bank has ethical policies including no fossil fuel investments. We don't have branches of any bank in our little town but we are able to do anything we need at the Post Office or online. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2023

Ethical and Accessible

Great all rounder, ethical provider, some small rewards for loyalty and friendly branches Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Failure to deal with complaints

I made a complaint about an international transfer which they messed up (and charged me for). According to their Complaints Policy they respond within 15 working days. It is now 20 working days since I lodged the complaint and they have told me that they have no idea when they will deal with it due to a backlog of complaints. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Constant hassle

Takes a ridiculous amount of time to get through on the phone, you can barely do anything on the app so no choice but to phone. Very unhelpful when you finally get through on the phone, and can hear other operatives loudly in the background. They usually make some sort of mistake causing me to have to waste my time ringing back. Complained via secure message months ago which they’ve ignored. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Great underrated bank

Can’t fault Co operative bank. All communication has been great. Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Honest, careful, ethical banking

I bank with the C-op Bank because I can be sure that they do their best to invest my money in ethical ways that reflect my views. They also make the effort to find out what's important to me regarding money and investing. Reviewed on: 18th January 2023
