    Bank transaction

    My bank transaction went quite smoothly, but I reckon they should really be asking for proof of income upfront if you're self-employed, instead of immediately delving into your bank details. It threw me off a bit when they wanted electronic access from the get-go, only to then request my tax info further down the line. Perhaps they could sharpen up their evaluation procedure a tad. Nevertheless, I was pretty satisfied with the service overall. Thanks a bunch!

    Simple account opening, great interest rate

    Being an existing customer, I found it really easy to open a new savings account with a good interest rate. The whole process was simple and didn't need lots of forms or annoying verification steps. I really like how straightforward and efficient the service from this bank is.

    Opening a new account

    Setting up another account was a bit of a hassle because I couldn't work out how to transfer money from my current account. So, I had to go through a longer process using a nominated account. However, I do appreciate the competitive rates and range of account options that are on offer.

    New bank account

    I fancied opening a new account, but the bank didn't seem to pay much attention to what I was after. Instead, they provided me with something that wasn't really what I was looking for. It was a bit disappointing, to be honest.

    Online banking service

    I have to say, I was really impressed by the online banking service that this company offers. But I did find the website a bit confusing and not as user-friendly as I would have preferred. I think they could make some improvements to the layout to make it easier for customers to navigate. Still, I thought the actual online banking platform was efficient and reliable, which made it easy for me to manage my finances from home.

    Investment choice assistance

    It was really nice to have a proper chat with a friendly and knowledgeable person rather than having to talk to a robot. Their help in guiding us with our investment decision was so useful and we're really grateful.

    Long-term saving account

    I've been with this bank for ages now, mainly because of their great savings accounts for the long haul. The service I get is always top-notch. The staff are friendly, know their stuff, and always give a hand when needed. Their online system is dead easy to use, making it a breeze to keep on top of my savings. The interest rates they offer are really competitive, helping my savings grow nicely. I'd definitely tell anyone searching for a solid place to stash their cash to check this bank out.

    Joint account application

    I applied for a joint account back in April after receiving advice that it would suit our needs. I uploaded all the necessary documents for verification and have been following up on the application through phone calls. I was promised details to deposit our savings but as of June 4th, I am still waiting. Despite numerous apologies, the account has not been opened yet. I'm left feeling confused by the 5-star ratings.

The online application was easy to follow and I got a decision on my loan pretty quickly. All in all, I was really impressed with the service I got from the bank.
