I have had a bad experience with sending money abroad for my relatives. I’ve been their customer for more than 5 years and I haven’t had any issues other than sending money abroad. It was only £1000 and it took 2 weeks to be able to send. I won’t use them for international money transfer anymore but they are still my favourite bank in the UK. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

I left my previous bank of 15 years because the banking app was over complected, plus every time I changed my phone it was unbelievably difficult to get it back Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

A brilliant online back

A brilliant online back - excellent app, reliable and clear. Good range of savings products. Best of all is the use of the card abroad with no fees and an excellent exchange rate. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
