Great security features.

Their App is easy to use and easy to move money around . Poor interest rates. Very security minded, saved me from being scammed a number of times. Reviewed on: 1st March 2024

A bit behind the curve on online

Longest bank account a bit behind the curve on online/app - bit annoyed at upsell and “did you know…” boring distracting information in their app. Also just because you have a brand colour don’t use it for everything the text doesn’t read well Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

Always seems a little clunky.

Always seems a little clunky. But they try but whole set up is too big with chatbots. Nonpersonal contact. Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

Bank of Mum

Very friendly staff, very polite on line and in bank, outdoor not do enough for you Reviewed on: 29th August 2023

£200 Switch offer complete joke

I made the switch and was expecting £200 to be in my account within 7 calendar days in accordance complaint RBS swith offer terms and conditions. I met all criterias and it is now well over 7 calendar days and nothing has come through. Called RBS customer service couple of times and was told, yes i have met all criterias and they don't understand why the £200 has not been paid. Then told my only way to reach out to the switch team was via the app CORA. 2 days on no reply from Cora. RBS were very fast for the switch over but now they don't want to know me or the £200 offer. If a business states 7 calendar days and they don't meet this promise, then does it matter if they take a day, week, month or a year? The 'within 7 calendar days' criteria hasn't been fulfilled by RBS. They failed. I've complained but no confirmation or acknowledgement of my complaint. I am regretting it now... So called 'CORA' is a complete joke. Communication overall very poor. Majority of staff not so friendly. Reviewed on: 9th August 2023

Shocking service

I have tried to purchase a vehicle. RBS made it so difficult with regard to ‘capping’ the transferable amount that I missed the collection date. This is MY money, not yours. You do not have the right to stop me from using my OWN money to make a purchase. I will be switching banks on the back of this. Reviewed on: 15th July 2023

Great Bank

I have held my account for over 10 years with RBS and always had great customer service and the app lets me do everything I need from the convenience of my own home Reviewed on: 1st June 2023
