Review of the RBS, Select current account:

New service information being posted to current customers

I have had a few letters from the RBS in the run up to Christmas advertising new services they have for offers such as cash back on your monthly bills. I like being offered and informed about some of the services and options available but some of them did not really suit me or my buying and savings habits. I may make a change to one of the payed accounts in the future and use the 3% rewards on household bills they told me about in one of the letters. This will more than cover the cost of the new account and costs. It would be good for me if there was some way of giving them basic information about my buying and savings habits even if not the details online so that I don't get all the junk mail for offers what will never be any use to me.

Loyal and proud

I have been with RBS since I was 15 and over 17 years later I have stayed with them and will in future. Reviewed on: 29th June 2016

Great bank!

Always a great pleasure doing my business with RBS Thanks for the help and support I needed Reviewed on: 10th June 2016

Basic account, no frills but no cost. Not sure if it is better to stick with this or try one of the many fancy, monthly cost, accounts that apparently give all sorts of benefits/rewards.

Looking at Reward accounts with RBS. Sceptical. Do I need it, will I be better off, or will the bank be better off. They tell me I will be so I should trust that a reputable bank wouldn't lie? Reviewed on: 4th May 2016

Good customer service

the best bank on the highst for internet/ phone banking there apps and phone banking for current accounts are by far the easiest and most efficient ways of managing your money these day Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Leaving the bank

I found my branch of RBS not so customer friendly . Always seemed to be young assistants with the impression they were not interested in the customers. Get the transaction done and move on. So i did and left Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Great customer service

great customer support in branch

I have always found my local branch very friendly and they always tend to go above and beyond. They always reconise me when I go into the branch and are always ask after my family. Reviewed on: 19th February 2016

Why I stay with RBS

I have been with RBS for around 30 years. The reason I stay with them is the helpful attitude of the staff in their Salisbury office. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Reviewed on: 19th February 2016
