We've banked with Abbey National for nine years and have never had any problems at all. I also use their Internet Banking site which I find invaluable for finding a quick balance, or checking a statement. Plus you can arrange bill payments and move money between accounts - great if you've got a saving account with them aswell. ...

Quite simply one of the simplest services online today... Now they have spent time, effort and money in upgrading the service it's a simplistic experince for all that come and play. I work for a major online organisation and so I spent 8-10 hours a day online (seriously!) and I remember the world before internet banking... long queues, only ...

Good, solid, reliable on-line service - Advantages: Fast site, No Java, Hardly ever down - Disadvantages: A bit ugly, A few features missing

frustration - Advantages: WHEN e -banking works, it is very good - Disadvantages: I have been using e-banking for some time now and found it very useful, but since the site has been altered, I can no longer log on - very fustrating

I used to use Abbey National's online banking very successfully. Now I can't easily. It frequently fails to allow me to log in or open pages. I am a long-standing Abbey customer and they were my first online banking choice. The site worked pretty well. I'd have given it four stars. That is, until the very recent redesign. Amid ...

I have been with abbey national for too many years to count...... but this online banking, I thought would be a doddle to use, drives me CRAZY, to say the least. Most of the times when you enter which card you have and the numbers to enter, it doesn't accept it, and you have to keep plodding on, when you EVENTUALLY get into it, the pages ...

Mmm. Exciting business, online banking. For moi? Well, when I’m in credit of course and I actually have some money in my ISA account! To take an instant look at my money building up and feel a surge of excitement as I plan how I will spend it when I’ve had enough looking at it’s mounting value on my PC monitor ...

I have two accounts with the Abbey National, an Instant Saver account (supposedly for my savings, although it is very rare that there is ever any money in it!) and an Instant Plus account. It is possible to manage both of these accounts online, although it is generally a frustrating experience! To begin with, the site takes on average a ...

I've been using the Abbey National e-banking service since it's launch sometime last year. Prior to this I'd been using their telephone banking. The service works well, in that it has never been down when I have needed access to it. The site can be slow, which may be more of a symptom of its tie-in with legacy systems at the ...

I have banked with Abbey National for seven years and have always found them to be very good, the staff in the local branch ( chester ) are caring and friendly they are never too busy to help when you have a quiery. Having recently signed up for the e banking facility I have found them to be very quick in sending registration numbers etc via ...

I joined up for this service about three months ago and have not looked back since.... I find it absolutely invaluble for checking my account to see not only my balance but where my money goes to etc.... It is excellent to be able to get up at 4am to check whether a cheque has gone out or a direct debit has been taken yet..... I also ...

I found out about online banking with Abbey National through their cash point machines, not by a mail circular. You can order your password PIN while taking out cash and it gets to you in about 5 days, password first by letter, PIN by secure tear-apart envelope. When you first log on, you need your Abbey card number, you have to change ...

i firmly believe that there is a lot of bad press and hype regarding the security breaches on the Internet recently. Although there is fraud on the Internet, it is much less than can be found from more "traditional" transactions. I have recently been using telebanking with Abbey National and have found the service to be ...

Myself and my husband have banked with Abbeynational since we got together 9 years ago and have had no reason to complain at all. We have had help and advice when choosing our mortgage and excellent caring advice when we had our first child and money was tight. I am now pleased to say that they have excelled in the fact that they ...

I have banked with Abbey National since I left school 14 years ago. I joined them mainly because they were part of the Link network, and no matter where I went, there were usually 2 or 3 cash machines were I could withdraw my cash free of charge. I think it was the biggest network of machines at the time. Of course now all the Building Societies ...

Abbey National’s web site is really good and easy to use if you want mortgage advice. For first time buyers, it takes you through all the different options available to you, offers a “calculator” which you can use to work out how much you can borrow, and can even give you an “agreement in principle” which will help ...

I have been banking with Abbey National for at least 15 years and have had no reason to complain about them. Whenever I go into a branch I find the staff very helpful. I have a lot of standing orders and direct debits and have never had any problems with them, they have always been paid on time. I use Abbey National for my current ...
