Long Term Customer

I've banked with RBS for over 30 years and never had any issues with them. I've had various loans and overdrafts over the years and found their rates to be competitive. Happy customer! Reviewed on: 28th November 2017

Shocking service

1
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
