Great Instant Access Savings Account

4
"It does what it says on the tin" - my only minor grouse is that I receive a website warning about scams when all I can do is transfer funds to my linked current account. I am advised by text and by e-mail everytime I make a withdrawal so I guess I am safe from an account hack. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2023

slow to put up interest rates

I like the app and have had a very positive experience so far but Marcus has failed to put up the interest rate when other online banks have, Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

I opened my A/C with Marcus 2-3 years ago and can honestly say I can't fault them. In these days where everything you touch becomes a problem due to staff incompetence, it makes a very pleasant change to find at last, an organisation where you don't have to spend hours on the phone wasting your time with idiots who either can't understand what you're saying or don't know how to do their job. As an ex-bank employee myself many years ago, Well Done Marcus and keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

While it started off with leading rates when it first entered the market, it quickly lagged behind all the other players. After many months it now has increased rates but not enough to match the top accounts. What makes it worse is that outgoing payments seem to be incredibly delayed. It can take several hours for a payment to reach your linked bank account even on a weekday. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Great experience

Good rates, clear communication and easy to use app Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Easy

Funds are easily accessible, good rate of interest and clearly navigable website. Reviewed on: 6th March 2023

Easy to use

4
The Marcus app is easy to use and transfers are quick. The interest rate is not quite competitive t the moment. Reviewed on: 21st February 2023

Nice Customer Experience

High interest rate for savings would be great and loved user interface of mobile app Reviewed on: 20th February 2023
