The Freedom account gives you the flexibility to move money in and out of the account as you please without restrictions. It always gives you a fair rate of interest aligning it with any fluctuations in the Bank of England base rate and it is fantastically easy to operate, providing you with only the functionality that you need.

Smart easy trustworthy online banking

I have only used the online app rather than the website but have found all transfers and transactions easy and quick Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Great account competitive interest. Specialised so may limit some people.

5
I'm a long term fan of RCI. Competitive interest and transparent transactions. Great online access and customer support communications. It does what it claims. However, it can never be your sole bank account. It's limited to a single feed in and out account and there are many features missing like setting up direct debits, setting up future payment dates, paying multiple accounts and there also may be delays transfering money out at weekends. This is no problem if you want it as a stand alone savings pot with good interest and reasonably quick access. It does what it claims to do well. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Accessibility

4
Originally got it for interest rate and accessibility to access money within a short period with no fees. Other than the interest rates dropping across the board, it's still accessible Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Really Competitive Investment

5
I was very pleased when the interest rate responded to the demands of the market place and discouraged me from transferring my savings elsewhere. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Very reliable
