Great and friendly company

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

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.

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

My worst banking experience

1
RBS made several mistakes in the account opening process (multiple complaints upheld), terrible online and mobile banking. Infuriating that almost everything apart from opening an account needs to be done in a physical branch, especially when that is not made clear when opening an account. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Brilliant app

5
Great app, love the Get Cash feature as you can withdraw money without your debit card, useful in many ways. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2019
