Best customer service, a bank that takes care of you. No fees at all. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Very good phone bank!

5
My experience has been fantastic. I have had the account for a while now and never had an issue. It was very easy and quick to open an account. Very user friendly, easy to make paying to old and new payees as well as make international payments. I love the saving pots as it makes it easy to save for a goal! They keep adding or updating services instead of resting on their laurels and the best thing I can do everything from my phone! No need to visit a branch or have to log on to my computer! I hope they start ISA accounts soon. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
