Evaluating 367 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the customer service, highlighting the helpfulness and knowledge of the staff, who are often described as patient and understanding. Many appreciate the ability to speak with real human beings quickly, a rarity in banking, and commend the clear communication and efficient resolution of their queries. The website is frequently noted for being easy to navigate and straightforward, making processes like setting up accounts simple and quick. However, some customers also noted occasional difficulties with the online process, such as password rejections or creating multiple profiles, which led to frustration. A few other people also felt that the process for changing nominated banks or adding family members was overly laborious and required excessive identification compared to other financial institutions. There were also instances where customers experienced slow progress on their requests or received conflicting information from different staff members.

My account was scammed and I reported this to your Fraud department and Claire was given my case.
She reassured me and was extremely sympathetic and helpful.She assured me the sum which was a large amount would be sorted that day. She kept in touch with me at various times during the day and also closed my account and helped me register a new account successfully.She was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Her excellent service should be recognized. Many thanks Claire and RCI
