Review of the M&S Bank - Marks and Spencer, Current Account:

View on product page

"New-fashioned banking"? Old-fashioned incompetence!

I wish had read these reviews before switching - in fact I (almost) wish I'd stayed with TSB! I should have heeded the warning signs, when it took three long phone calls, three application forms and over six weeks to actually open the account. The little code generator is a joke - First Direct (also part of HSBC) ditched these years ago for phone-generated codes and even then they're only needed for some transactions. How can I make any transactions away from home without taking this stupid little object around with me? Ah, the mobile app! - no, can't do anything except see my balance and recent transactions. Today, a paper statement turned up - I haven't seen one of these for at least 5 years! So, I go online to get my statements changed to online only. "Not available yet" Not that keen to save the planet, are we, M & S? I will be switching again as soon as I can. Reviewed on: 30th August 2018
