Recently opened a new savings account.

Recently opened a new savings account. Rates are very competitive in fixed rate market. Customer service was excellent, as I am American and had just moved house, so recent address change, the application process slightly more complicated. Customer service could not have been more helpful in guiding me through process. Reviewed on: 26th January 2026

Simplicity of opening savings account.

5
My contact has been to open savings accounts for myself and my wife. I found the procedure clear, easy to understand and simple to follow. I was impressed that this was a lot more straightforward than some other savings accounts - including one that will not open an account until they have sent you two separate letters by post - each containing part of the information that they need to have inputted. I had never heard of Recognise Bank until I happened to see something about the 1 year fixed bond savings account and saw that the interest rate was very competitive Reviewed on: 24th January 2026

Top notch

Unmatchable rates.. exellent website. Super customer service, so pleased the FCSC limit has increased! More investments to come. Longer term deposit rates may be helpful as interest rates continue to decline. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026
