Average service

Far too few branches around these days and their app doesn’t permit scanning and depositing a cheque. It’s accessible enough, but lagging behind the competition. Difficult to get through to anyone on the phone. Reviewed on: 21st January 2022

Great value

Fantastic value, earning interest every month on balance as well as cash back on bills on top of cash back from personalised retail offers. What more could you want? Reviewed on: 21st January 2022
