RBS Select current account reviews (370)

All round excellence....

I'm not a customer of great wealth, in fact I do have an overdraft facility which I occasionally have the need to use, however my bank (who I've been with since the early 1980s) have always treated me respectfully and offered assistance when they felt I needed it and which at times I have accepted. They have looked after me personally when I had a local branch, and are now continuing to do so over the internet. My account fluctuates due to the fact my pension date changes, but they take this into consideration and always inform me when I am about to go into my overdraft. This account has suited my needs and RBS have always been fair and helpful and have always been there for me. I would, and have done many times, recommended RBS to friends and family. Needless to say I would never change banks; why should I when, as such a lowly customer, I receive such excellent service. Reviewed on: 27th February 2025

They're fine if you're too lazy to find better

They're fine if you want a basic bank account with no interest or perks and can overlook their involvement in most financial scandals. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

A solid bank account

RBS provides an over 60s telephone line which is answered quickly by someone who can sort out the problem. The banking service is rock-solid and the app and online service is excellent. Reviewed on: 20th November 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.
