Review of the Tembo Money, Lifetime ISA:

Excellent, ever-improving company

Customer Support

5
Excellent customer support - I was locked out of the account and was not receiving emails to get OTP. I used the online chat feature and was replied to within a few minutes despite it being around 9:30pm. The app is so easy to use, so many helpful tips / mortgage advise. I only wish I found the app sooner to start saving for my first home sooner! Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Would recommend to anyone saving for their first home!

The app is so easy to use and money is easy to transfer. It’s clear how to ask for advice and I am kept up to date with necessary communications Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Amazing paying back at a great rate. Simple and easy. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Mixed customer service - but, overall, a lot to praise

4
I have found the customer service to be mixed - sometimes outstanding (e.g. a technical expert replying promptly to an issue with the app), sometimes very poor (e.g. being given inaccurate information which affected my financial choices, taking months to respond to complaints). I have noticed inaccurate information being given in webinars. However, the majority of staff seem to be expert and very personable, helpful and genuine. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Highly recommend Tembo!

Tembo is a great bank with good customer service, they regularly have great offers and a really accessible app Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Unique, Convenient and Accessible.

5
Tembo created a unique experience that allows me to view my savings and money in a convenient and accessible way. The Cash ISA is perfect for creating an account that allows me to get a very good interest rate, while saving for a home in My Lifetime Cash ISA. Would thoroughly recommend.
