Review of the Tesco Bank, Current Account:

Now just another pointless current account

Once very attractive bank with great savings accounts, now just a dead duck like so many others. Shame because every little did help Reviewed on: 11th March 2021

Simple way to get 3%

Current account pays 3% on up to £3000 and you can have 2 - so 3% on up to £6000. No monthly pay in is necessary, so simply use as a savings account. Understand rate will last for 2 years. Reviewed on: 1st March 2017

Great interest frozen for 2 years, plus Tesco benefits

3% interest on up to £3000, which has been frozen for 2 years, unlike other companies which have lowered their interest rates. Requires no monthly deposit into the account either. Great benefits with clubcard points when you spend money on the card in general, and extra points when shopping at Tesco in store or online. Reviewed on: 1st March 2017

At least 3%

Opened up a £3k account (offering at least 3% til April 2019 - good rate, no DDs required, no monthly pay-in required. Reviewed on: 9th February 2017

Current savings

Nice easy current account that I use for savings. Great interest rate with easy access to my money without any hassle of having to keep doing direct debits or pay in. Will never understand why they don't just do a great savings account and call it that! Reviewed on: 31st January 2017

Great Customer Service

Had to speak to customer service a few times due to fraudulent use on my account and they were really helpful and sorted out the problem straight away. Definitely recommend Reviewed on: 21st December 2016

App is great, service is amazing, and good benefits

Good service and company all round, great benefits and great mobile banking app Reviewed on: 1st December 2016

Great customer service

The staff at my local store are very helpful with all my banking issues, they go the extra mile to help me out, super service Reviewed on: 8th September 2016

Excellent customer service by phone with knowledgeable and polite staff.Their web site is so easy to use and have never had a problem.This really is one bank I'd recommend to friends and family

I changed bank after having banked with RBS for 35 years,I became more and more frustrated by fewer staff and continual harassment trying to force products and services on me.After careful research I chose Tesco Bank and it's honestly the best thing I have ever done Reviewed on: 1st June 2016
