No Perks, Bad Service

1
It took me ages to set up my account. The Bank manager made me return to my boss. My letter from work was addressed to 'the bank manager' and had to be changed to 'the Royal Bank of Scotland' otherwise the account could not be setup. Ridiculous!! Reviewed on: 10th February 2017

Great British bank with trustworthy reputation

I often call phone banking to check my account details, query direct debits and transfer payments. I'm a bit of technophobe and still like to talk to a friendly staff member. I love the courteous, polite, friendly and helpful staff that works at RBOS. Reviewed on: 7th February 2017

Great all round advice-brilliant friendly service!

The RBS Basic current account is a great account if it's your first, you get everything you'd expect from a basic account, card, PIN, Online and Telephone banking and you can set up direct debits and standing orders and its free. The things you don't get with it is a chequebook or overdraft facility. Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

GOOD BENEFITS FOR YOUNG FAMILIES

5
The registration process ran smoothly. The Royal Bank of Scotland could not have been more helpful and bent over backwards to meet my needs. Various promotions were offered which encouraged me to register for the product. We were looking for a basic bank account for our 14 year old daughter and this one was perfect. Would highly recommend as it really is a great product for someone looking for their first bank account. Reviewed on: 28th April 2015
