I couldn’t access my internet banking & was locked out. On phoning I was told that my membership ID, which I’ve been using for years, was wrong & given a new one. Of course, I thought this could be a scam. I asked for an explanation, they couldn’t give me any so I await the explanation I have requested after lodging a complaint……

I have been banking with Secure Trust…

I have been banking with Secure Trust bank for several years now -having had a number of different saving accounts with them. I always am able to get through to someone on the phone and find their customer service second to none. They are always helpful, and thoughtful at suggesting products which offer a higher interest rate. I would def. recommend them to anyone considering opening a new account.

Opening an account is quick and straight forward

Opening an account is straight forward, any response is quick and to the point. This time I was transferring a mature ISA and adding this years ISA allowance. I have used Secure Bank a few years ago for a fixed rate savings account and again they were very helpful and efficient then.
