first direct Regular Saver Account reviews (123)

A good first impression

5
I moved to First Direct because of their excellent customer service reviews and their regular saving account rate. I've just bought a house so I no longer have a lump of savings - however, I do want to start saving again. This savings account fits my finances perfectly. Yes you can only deposit a maximum of £300 a month, but that suits me. By the end of the year, I'll have a nice little savings lump with 5% interest on top. Perfect! Reviewed on: 2nd March 2017

Great Customer Service

5
We've been with First Direct for over a year. Moving to them was fast & hassle free and any queries since have been dealt with quickly, professionally & by lovely helpful staff! Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

Good interest rate

5
I read about this account on MSE and opened a savings account right away. For a small saver like me, this one-year account is ideal for the 6.0% AER that it pays Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

A no fuss regular saver

5
Easy to set up and manage their regular saver is a modest no fuss account which can be relied upon each year to have a high rate of interest. Reviewed on: 7th February 2017

Fantastic Savings Rate

Just so easy there is no worry

5
Current account and regular saver accounts are churning the market like a washing machine in full spin but First Direct just keep a steady effortless course for the mainstream customer in spite of all this news grabbing turmoil about challenger banks and peer to peer lending that can leave you feeling exhausted.

Great interest rate and easy to set up, excellent service as always Reviewed on: 21st November 2016

Great service, talk to a real person everytime!

5
First Direct do a regular saving account for customers, it currently pays 6% interest, which is fantastic. The account runs for 12 months, before maturing upon which another regular saving account can be taken out. I have had 4 of these accounts now and fully intend continuing with them. I use mine as a Christmas savings account, so it is an excellent way for me to have Christmas sorted without wondering how I will pay for it. Like everything with First Direct, it is easy to set up, with excellent communication and always a real person to speak to on the phone, without having to wade through a huge range of options. Definitely recommend this account Reviewed on: 23rd October 2016

New Regular Saver

5
I recently opened my first Regular Saver account with First Direct, and was impressed with their efficiency and the ease of opening the account. It showed up almost immediately in my list of accounts on the mobile banking app, and has been an extremely smooth process. The interest rate is good too! Highly recommended!
