RCI Bank Freedom Savings Account reviews (2154)

Review of the RCI Bank, Freedom Savings Account:

What has happened?

Used to provide great service, but now, like other reviewers, I can not make contact with anyone at RCI, either by phone, email or online message. I have an important question that needs resolving. If I was a victim of fraud, what could I do? Reviewed on: 23rd November 2023

Fantastic Savings Bank - Excellent customer service

Excellent smooth sailing bank that you can set up immediately from your phone for a start. The app it's self is easy to use for the start up process and in general very easy to withdraw and deposit money, as long as you follow instructions. They've recently upgraded to same day withdrawls (it used to be next day or day after next depending on time of day which was a chore) which streamlines everything. The rates for monthly and annually are excellent in comparison to banks that are on the street and they're very secure. If I've ever had a query I phone in and over the phone they're very helpful and very friendly. 10/10 RCI. Reviewed on: 26th June 2024

Excellent savings bank

Excellent monthly rates, no hassle withdrawing money, customer service extremely helpful, all at the touch of your fingers as its all done through their mobile app. Their mobile app is easy to use and it takes little effort to set uo an account. But please read their FAQs before hand just so you know which is the right choice for you! Reviewed on: 6th June 2024

The bank is easy to deal with online.

The bank is easy to deal with online. Payments in and withdrawals to a nominated account are normally within 24 hours. The interest rate is amongst the best for easy access savings. I have never had any problems with my accounts. I would willingly reco0mmend them to friends and family. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

RCI's Freedom Savings Account works great for me.

RCI's Freedom Savings Account works great for me. Withdrawals really are instant. Withdrawals from many other easy access accounts take hours or even next day until the money is transferred and available in the nominated account. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Competitive rates and good service .

Staff are polite and helpful. The interest rates are competitive and website easy to use. The information is clearly marketed and self explanatory. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Suspicious number of 1-star reviews

I’m a consumer journalist and have two fixed rate accounts and a number of easy access accounts with RCI. I have been an RCI customer for around eight years and have never had an issue with them. I find it more than a little suspicious that so many 1-star reviews have been posted over such a short space of time recently. By the simple law of averages, there should be at least a number of 2-star and more reviews mixed in with the unending list of 1-star reviews! Reviewed on: 16th January 2024

Dishonest business, beware!

I've withdrawn my money the 7th December, and still haven't received on 11th December 2023. I've contacted them, they tried to explained, fool me, the situation which is good for them but it is not for customers. And I've asked for the interest daily rate that I suppose to get per day while they keep my money in their pockets, and they said you can not get anything since 7th December when you asked for withdrawal. So they get free beef from my money while I'm waiting for that questionable transferring money. Well the very clever game I should say. Therfore, I'm closing down my account to save my money and time. Beware of this type of 'legal Sc..'. Reviewed on: 11th December 2023
