First Direct Review

I've been with First Direct from when the Midland Bank First offerred as an incentive to move to s 24/7 Bank. I have always found them to be honest and reliable. Like some of the reasent reviewers I have noticed a small drop in customer service in the past 12 months. Their App is excellent to use but in terms of what you can do within it compared to other newer banks is limited and needs reviewing. Appart from their ISA the savings systems offered are very good with reasonable interest rates and I currently use them. The above said I must clarrify my ratings, I never give 5/5 or 10/10 as every company has room for improvement and, in my opinion, those who give these scores have been incentivised or otherwise rewarded.

Chase Current Account Review.

When i started Banking with Chase they provided payback when you used your account for the first year. They then changed the rules making it harder to get this reward. If they did what most Banking establishments do and reward against each spend rather than using the arbitrary companies category rating it would potentially be a scheme worth considering meeting the criteria to avail your self of. In my opinion other Banking Institutions offer better and more consistent services. Despite this one negative I find Chase to be honest and reliable but they are my number two Bank.

Chase Banks Savings Accounts.

At first found chase equal to other Banks and Building Societies but then they tied their interest to the Bank of England base rate. I now have other companies who offer better interest rates. This said I have found them to be honest and reliable in that they do what they say. If your happy with your interest moving every time Bank of England moves its base rate then chase is OK for spreading your savings to make most of Governments protection.
