Excellent customer service and support

5
I've been with RCI bank for several years now and never had a problem with any aspect of my online account with them. In addition, they are pretty quick to pass on any rise in interest rates for savers. Well done RCI Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Great competitive bank

4
Excellent rates for my wife and I at these very odd times Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Easy and fair

4
Whilst interest rates have been poor everywhere I do feel that RCI have kept theirs as good as possible considering that this is an instant access account. Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Best value easy access account

5
RCI are one of the most competitive banks for easy access savings . They are one of the first banks to pass on increase of interest rate which should Shane the bigger banks who seem reluctant to do so. With the RCI app it’s also very safe and easy to utilise. Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

RCI Bank are perfect for savings

5
RCI have, for me, the perfect amount of access to your money. I’ve had accounts previously that instantly moved over your money and had poor interest rates, which weren’t ideal for my purposes. RCI have a great system and the customer service has been perfect whenever I’ve needed it. Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Fair treatment for customers

5
Rates clear and competitive and existing customers treated fairly Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Great product, but online experience could be improved

3
Been with RCI for a few years. they always offer great interest rates, and good customer service. However their online system could be improved, and transferring cash in and out of the account could be more straight forward. That said I would be happy to recommend them overall Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Excellent customer service

5
Always answer the phone quickly with an excellent telephone manner and sort out any queries efficiently. No complaints and would 100% recommend Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022

Decent rates

4
Internet banking works really well & seems properly secure Reviewed on: 2nd March 2022
