Review of the RBS, Basic Current Account:

I'd switch if I wasn't so lazy.

All the basic bank stuff is there and works so it's not all terrible, but customer service is non-english speakers hidden behind an AI "helper" obstruction wall and interest rates are non-existent. Plus they've been up to their eyes in every financial scandal of the last few decades. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Scammed..

Received a text from rbs telling us of fraudulent activity on our current account.Attempted to contact fraud on three occasions.On each occasion contact was cut off.As cards and my account had been closed down I was unable to access any funds .On visiting our Coatbridge branch we were assisted by a member of staff (Gillian) who made contact with the Fraud Department on our behalf.Her input helped resolve the problem .Thanks again Gillian.

Faultless service every time.

Faultless service every time. I love my bank and would never change. It has a modern online banking app and good features. The app is easy to use and simple. The stores are modern and the staff are very helpful Reviewed on: 15th September 2024

They're a bank

They're a bank, not much more you can say other than hey, remember when banks would give you interest? You also have to ignore all their past financial scandals. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Switch from RSB, make sure your account is closed.

I have left RBS in 2012 via an automatic switch to Lloyds Bank, I'm happy I keep all paperwork in a box, as now 12years later RBS chasing me for outstanding balance on my account, in total £261. I asked deats collection company,where is this det coming from, no answer for this day, just reminders how easy is to make payments online. Stay away from RBS and if you do switch check after month or so if account is definitely close. As mine apparently is still open, even RBS didn't contact me for last 12years.
