Review of the RBS, Basic Current Account:

I'd switch if I wasn't so lazy.

2
All the basic bank stuff is there and works so it's not all terrible, but customer service is non-english speakers hidden behind an AI "helper" obstruction wall and interest rates are non-existent. Plus they've been up to their eyes in every financial scandal of the last few decades. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

My Bank Account

This is the account I use and I find it works for me. Reviewed on: 19th December 2019

Amazing mobile app - Love it!

5
the mobile app for my RBS account is amazing. There are so many new features this year and the app is way better than my Barclays one Reviewed on: 4th December 2019

Not Good

2
I have been with RBS for 40 years but I am now moving my accounts. Their phone banking is terrible and this combined with branch closures means I no longer want to be a customer. My nearest branch of RBS is now 20 miles away and although there is a closer NatWest I vehemently dislike their business model. Reviewed on: 30th November 2019

Verfy Reliable Bank

4
I have been with RBS for such long time, and have no problem with them at all Reviewed on: 28th November 2019

Great and friendly company

5
The staff are always friendly and helpful, always willing to help a hand. They have a great selection of products and I have banked with them since I was a child. Reviewed on: 24th November 2019

Hard to reach

2
I find RBS hard to access since closing their branches and find access to my account as a disabled person their isn't even an online chat I can talk to on my R.B.S app Reviewed on: 23rd November 2019

If I wasn't so lazy I'd switch.

2
I'm sure their actual service isn't *that* much worse than any other bank, but I'll never forgive them for being up to their necks in the financial crisis. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2019

Fantastic Service

5
I love supporting a home grown brand and having the customer service that one deserves! Reviewed on: 22nd November 2019
