RCI Freedom Saving Account

5
For an Instant access account it is easy to use, secure app and website, always have a reasonable interest rate compared to other instant access accounts and if rates change they delay the drop and if rates increase for new accounts they convert your rate to the new rate immediately. Been with them for a number of years and had no issues. Only downside is they are not on the "Fast Banking" system so you have to always remember to move money early to make sure the money is in your bank account when required.

Excellent banking and easy online banking.

5
Good interest rate, and best of all --rates go up for existing customers, not just new ones!! Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Excellent - reliable in these uncertain times!

5
Easy to use online account. Although it's a bit of a pain getting into your account, it does guarantee security, which again, in the times we are living in, is paramount. And much better rate than the High Street can offer. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Simple to run

5
account works like clockwork. a standing order pays in each month and I get a statement each month Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

All round excellent

5
Helpful and polite customer service Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

The fastest responder to interest rate rises

5
I have several savings accounts, and RCI so far have been the best. They respond so quickly with interest rate changes, with existing customers getting automatically changed to the new higher rate, rather than having to close accounts and change to a new one. I don't understand why more banks don't do this - surely it's less administration required, and fairer for all customers. RCI also communicate well, without trying to sell tonnes of new products.

Good banking ethos
