Review of the RBS, Basic Current Account:

POOR BRANCH NETWORK

2
RBS ARE CLOSING LOCAL BRANCHES. IN OUR AREA THREE HAVE CLOSED IN RECENT MONTHS. THAT HAS RESULTED IN HUGE QUEUES AT THE NEAREST REMAINING BRANCH TO US. RBS CLEARLY HAS NO IDEA HOW MUCH DAMAGE THIS IS DOING TO ITS ALREADY THREADBARE REPUTATION - THEY SHOULD BE EXPANDING SERVICE TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES, NOT REDUCING IT. Reviewed on: 15th November 2017

After 50 plus years as a customer ,of high networth, RBS have ignored at least 15 emails I have sent, I am in California on holiday and they have been told this MANY times but they continually tell me they are sending acitvation codes, despite me telling them I am in USA, WHY?????? I need access to my account to buy medication but they ignore this!!!!! I had a heart attack 3 weeks ago and they STILL ignore me!!! Pathetic!! John Mc Dade Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Good retail bank for Scottish customers

5
Within England, RBS is an amalgamation of several banks, such as William's & Glynn's. Why not migrate RBS's retail customers to NatWest, which still has some local high-street branches where staff can handle transactions that require face to face contact. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2023
