Review of the Yorkshire Bank, Business Banking:

Worst bank ever

1
Don’t go near this bank. Bad staff. bad online. Never can get through on phone. We have a credit card with them that’s never been used or left the house and as now been hacked. Not sure how? Can l get through to anybody NO. If l listed all the trouble we have had with them l would need all night. We have no money with them anymore & will be closing all empty accounts in the morning.

Total disaster

1
Attempting to set up a business account. On the face of it this seemed like a really good idea but having weeks later not completed the process I would not recommend this to anyone! The staff on the phone appear very helpful - however it has been a nightmare setting this account up for the following reasons They took 2 weeks to send through an application They lost my application even though it was handed in with proof of posting at a post office I had to go to Picadilly Circus to hand in a second application which wasted 1/2 a day This still took 2 weeks to process The account opening letter had a mistake in the account number which I gave to a mortgage company causing a lot of hassle and inconenience I received am email with another reference on it and wasted 1/2 and hour on the phone until I was told to call business banking on Monday - so the business banking has really limited hours unlike other banks I was told to make a payment to activate the account and that was returned and failed to activate the account even though it was to the correct account number When I applied for an account I specifically applied for on-line banking (as otherwise what would be the point of having an account living in London when the branches are in Yorkshire!!!!!!!!!!) I was told that was fine someone would call me. No-one did. I spoke to them several times and now have to fill in a load of new paperwork. So the whole thing has turned into a joke - only these people are supposed to be entrusted with my money!! Reviewed on: 19th December 2016

Horrific experience over 4 long years

1
Even after being fed up for so long of their contempt for customers they managed to cock up that , Diabolical service and care not a jot about customers, i really feel their staff have their hands tied, i do not normally post reviews but after 3 strikes hopefully it will serve as a warning to others Reviewed on: 29th October 2016

Useless

1
About as useful as a sloth in a 100 meter dash. If you want to have a negative effect on your business go near these guys. Absolutely dire service and systems. Before even considering opening an account I suggest calling theme and waiting through the 20+ minute voice mail, then have a discussion with an employee who has no interest in their job ( it's a common theme). Reviewed on: 14th July 2016

Personal service

Excellent personal service. Will be seen on short-term notice. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2016

Capital raising to purchase a nursing home

5
assisted a Doctor looking to purchase a nursing home. A facility of £150,000 was raised, the applicants would have lost their interest-only rate had they applied to their mortgagee. The process facility was arranged within a very tight timescale. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015
