Exactly what any banking experience should be like

They answered the phone within 3 rings!! The lady was extremely helpful; answered my query; suggested different options that would suit me and walked me through the process. Dealing with GB Bank could not have been easier each time I have contacted them, so I am very happy to recommend them.

Having just opened a savings account I could not find my new account number or sort code.

Having just opened a savings account, which was very straight forward and uncomplicated, I logged onto my new account in order to find my new account number and sort code but to my dismay, this information was nowhere to be found anywhere within my account details! Therefore I could not make a transfer into the account. I called customer services and spoke with an extremely helpful young man, who quickly solved the issue.

GB Bank as usual solved my self generated problem!
They are always there to resolve any issues. Quickly, efficiently and professionally. The staff are extremely polite, friendly but more importantly interested in you as an individual not just an accountant number.
I would recommend GB Bank as probably the best bank of its type. WELL DONE, DON'T CHANGE!

An excellent service

An excellent service. So refreshing to speak to one person who assumed responsibility for my challenge over the course of a couple of days.
All too often these days you make calls to companies and you never get to speak to the same individual. Not the case with GB Bank. Great work, keep it up Rob

GB Great Britain, UK call answering in Newcastle 👍

Have been with GB for a while; good so far.
I needed advice over the phone today, my call was answered promptly and helpfully by Rob in Newcastle upon Tyne. Uk call answering is helpful for me because I have hearing impairment and have difficulty understanding overseas call centres.
There was a small problem opening a new account on line using iPad safari so I was advised to do it on Google which did work. I suspect that a section of the GB software isn’t compatible with Safari but with help on the phone we sorted it using google.
Otherwise apart from the software issue it would have been 5 star

Customer Experience

Good competitive interest rates.

Very accessible by phone and answer without delay. Speak to a real person. Staff all speak English and so no issues in communication. All staff always very helpful and knowledgeable in their products and systems. Staff are always very patient when sorting things out, very polite.

Today spoke to their colleague, Chantelle who quite happily stayed on the phone whilst I made payments from another bank, to make sure the money hit my GB bank account without issue. Very reassuring when moving large sums of money. Thanks Chantelle and thanks to all your colleagues.
