Review of the Shawbrook Bank, Savings:

Denied my money on maturity

service disgraceful! Previously able to login online but suddenly stopped. After repeated requests for information and help I was totally ignored. Maturity on the savings account arrived and I was not able to get my money out of them. Scandalous treatment. They kept fudging the issue, avoiding any assistance to me and making a mountain out of a molehill. they just wanted me to phone them which I am unable to do, on which is after all an online account that should be operated solely online. Today no progress has been made I still do not have my money! To repeat, unbelievably arrogant bad service Reviewed on: 17th January 2025

Very good rates and products.

Very good rates and products. Customer service a little slow to respond and all is in-app, which be frustrating but you get there in the end. Overall very happy. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

It was easy to open a savings account. Competitive interest rates Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Straightforward and competitive savings choices

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

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.

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.

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
