Like the fact it's Scottish, but would like to see more support for Scottish nation. I like passbooks. Would like more interest banking availability too Reviewed on: 5th August 2020

Inverness branch review

The practice of opening a new account is very old fashioned - it is so easy to open one on the internet these days. Having to provide documentary evidence is also outdated, as is having a passbook. We have a lot of fixed term investments and no-one operates like that these days. Reviewed on: 24th July 2020
