Review of the Shawbrook Bank, Savings:

The web site is in complete chaos.

1
The web site is in complete chaos. Instructions are contradictory and many of the supposed links for transactions are either missing or do not link to the options they are supposed to. Clicking on "help" on the Accounts page produces "Ooops - page no longer exists". Using the secure message page seems to get no prompt response. Reviewed on: 5th July 2024

Straightforward and competitive savings choices

5
Shawbrook Bank has a very easy to navigate website and offers attractive interest rates on its savings products. Not having banked with Shawbrook before I was somewhat cautious at first, but needn't have been. Seeing them recommended by the Martin Lewis website I have already made two savings investments with them and it has all gone very smoothly. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Dealing with Shawbrook is very easy, they communicate well in straightforward language Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Archaic online system

1
Impossible to transfer between accounts online, have to request transfers via secure messaging which is taking 5 days to action due to insufficient staffing. Same goes for customer service in general, insufficient staffing leading to long delays. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2024

Just in for the competition.

Just in for the competition. Would not have bothered otherwise Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Great rates and easy to use.

5
Easy website. good rates. Only downside is you can’t request funds in you have to push. Reviewed on: 6th April 2024

Avoid at all costs.

1
Avoid at all costs. You have to go through hoops if you want to withdraw your money early if anything were to happen. We have a decent amount in a savings account, and with the increase in immigration surcharge we are needing this money to pay for it. I have been told my request has to be reviewed by a panel and it might not be approved! I genuinely can't believe a company can be allowed to do that with your money! Reviewed on: 28th March 2024
