Appalling complaint resolutionI

Appalling complaint resolution I made a complaint 24/01/25 which was acknowledged by letter of 31/01/25 (letter arrived 11/02/25). They said if they wanted more information they would contact me within four weeks, however they gave themselves eight weeks to give me a response. I have phoned but their customer service says it absolutely does nothing with complaints (?) I have to wait it out for a response. There is an email address given for 'if I need assistance'. I think the re... Reviewed on: 23rd February 2025

Unfortunately have to leave this bad review about this company,but it would be fair. I read a lot of bad reviews and was still hopeful it's not gonna happen with me. We had a mortgage AIP with them , which took 7 days to get through, as it went to underwriters, as a specialist lender they are working with people like us, who has some adverse credit history in past. They knew all our circumstances, issued AIP, then went for a full mortgage offer, paid £500 for valuation, credit c... Reviewed on: 23rd January 2024

Not reliable

Sent documents two weeks ago not opened the account or returned documents very unprofessional Reviewed on: 5th October 2023

Good savings interest rate but....

Kent Reliance offers competitive fix term saving accounts. However, there is no way of knowing what is it that they actually do with our money. I would ask from a bank transparency regarding where they invest and Kent Reliance unfortunately does not do this. Unsure if I'd use them again. Reviewed on: 28th March 2023

Good interest rates, easy to deal with.

KR offer great savings accounts and are quick to improve rates when national interest rates go up. Also very easy to deal with on line. Reviewed on: 28th February 2023
