Kroo’s app is a breeze to use, with many loving the competitive interest rates paid monthly on current accounts. The bank’s smooth setup and helpful features like savings pots make managing money simple and even enjoyable. However, some have faced serious issues with account freezes and poor customer service, causing frustration and delays in accessing funds. While many praise the modern, user-friendly experience, a few warn about slow or unresponsive support and restrictions on certain transactions.

Kroo froze my savings account with no discernable change in how I used my account and no violation of its terms and conditions. It delayed its response and resolution with very little communication after I provided a prompt response to its frankly intrusive request for information. Internet research indicates this happens to Kroo customers with concerning regularity. Read more Read less
