Ethical bank

I’ve banked with the co-op for many years and always found their representatives pleasant and helpful and their services efficient. Helps me sleep at night that they have a decent ethical policy.

Don't be put off by reports about this bank, Customer Service is fantastic and I've always found the staff to be really helpful at the branch or on the phone. Keep up the good work Coop! X

I am a student, and I had got given a Britannia Savings Account Book when I was 16 years old, 4 years ago. When Britannia merged with Co-Op it was still simple enough to get money out of my Savings Account, until recently they have been trying to phase out the Britannia Saving Account books, as they are outdated. It was not a simple switch unfortunately, I had to have a meeting regarding changing to a card, but it was unclear what was the most similar to the one I currently had. I chose the Smart Saver card, which has been ok so far. However, my pin was lost in the post and it took over a month to be sent another one- BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I decided on this savings account, as I wanted one that would help charity as well as helping me save money.I was really pleased with the ease in opening my account, also to recieve and ATM card which means I can access my money if I need too
