Bank of Scotland Reviews

I want to write a positive review of my dealings with the Bank of Scotland but unfortunately they have ripped me off. My relationship with them started before I was born, my grandad was a manager for the BoS so it was the default banking choice for all the family. I started out with a supersavers account when I was a nipper and loved my ...

The RBS incorrectly sent forwarded money to an incorrect account and then when AP transaction was short by 20p as a result of their error I was charged 35 pounds! As you could imagine I was livid, whilst they acknowledged the error they refused to refund me their horrendous charge! Daylight robbery. They will never have my business again.

I have no idea why merging with the Halifax should make such a difference, but I have found it trajic that after being in the unique position amoung my friends of being happy with my bank I now consider this bank to be uniquely evil. I have just checked when I first joined this bank and was a little surprised to learn that I have been ...

My husband used to work for the Bank of scotland years ago before he retrained and hence he had an account with them... It came in handy sometimes because he had a very good relationship with the bank manager.... but alas even the manager has changed. When I got married, my husband put my name on his existing account. The bank of ...

I have been with the bank for three years now, I can't complain about anything at all. - Advantages: Good range of products - Disadvantages: If you became overdrawn, too quick to charge

I have been with the Bank of Scotland for many years now (since before I went to university). I have been consistently happy with the service I have received from them. I would like to highlight especially the great care they took of me while I was a student. They were always friendly and willing to help - "do you need a little ...

I was with the Bank of Scotland before I became a student then moved to the Royal Bank of Scotland who were offering the better account at the time. I have since started working for a debt advice company is Scotland and we regularly contact the Bank of Scotland, and they are the most helpful banks around. Hopefully this will not apply to any ...

Having recently moved to a small town (where everything still closes for lunch breaks), I am relieved to see that some banks still offer the same brand of customer service remiscent of the shopkeepers in Frank Kappra's "Its a Wonderful Life" Our local Bank Of Scotland must be staffed by the friendliest bank tellers in the ...

Known as a 'First Cheque' account, this is basically the Bank Of Scotland's account for 16-17 yr olds. It offers good rates of interest, a cheque book and a debit card. The debit card is a Solo card. Run by Switch, it works identically, although it is accepted in fewer shops. Major Supermarkets such as Safeway accept it, as do the ...

I was with the Bank of Scotland for 1 year - my first year at University.(1995) I don-t remember what made me choose them initially - probably because some of my friends were. I would strongly advise using the Bank of Scotland as they are far to trigger-happy with bank charges. I was given a £50 allowance per week from my parents and also ...

Who'd have ever though a devout Anglophile such as myself would ever even consider the sacriligous act of joining a foreign bank. English money should stay in English hands! Queen and country need it to conquer the Boers! Well, maybe I'm not that staunchly patriotic. The Skipton was the closest I ever got to an off-shore bank ...

I thought that I would write about Bank Charges. We have been with the bank of Scotland for a number of years. We used to find them very helpful indeed. And then they centralised their operations and did away with the local managers. The company I work for are not very good when it comes to wages. I regularly find a discrepancy, with ...

I have been with the bank of Scotland for about 15 years and have always been treated well by them...when they had a 'Bank Manager' who knew me and my circumstances. I have been through many sticky times since being with them and each time, until now, they have treated me sympathetically. Some time ago the manager became area ...
