Clydesdale Bank Reviews

The Clydesdale Bank. We have been banking with this bank for a number of years and over the past 12 months it has degenerated into a two bit cowboy outfit. The branch I use mostly and others I have had the displeasure of using usually have one or two tellers so it takes quite a while to get to the front of the ...  Read the complete review

We were recommended a Clydesdale mortgage by our financial advisor - and on paper it looked like a great deal. But they have been an absolute nightmare to deal with. It took weeks and weeks to get the mortgage approved - with questions ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous following the valuation on our new home. Then, when they'd finally ...  Read the complete review

Many people make a big hoo hah about changing banks these days. Personally, I don't bother. You see, Clydesdale doesnt offer me gimmicks or 0% on transfers but we sting you elsewhere. Instead they offer you a steady service, everything carries a low charge (but nothing is passed) and I am not unfairly penalised for doing something wrong. I also ...  Read the complete review

As a customer of the Clydesdale bank I feel that things are definitely getting worse, however, I feel that it is not simply down to the staff on the front counter - they can only do so much. If they are not provided with the tools and support in place to do the job properly. Half the time it seems that the staff are fighting the system ...  Read the complete review

I was charged £62.50 when I sent £100 to a poor family in India. Through ActionAid, I used to sponsor Monj, a poor Indian boy in the Calcutta area. Now Monj is grown up and is working with an organisation that helps the poor. Recently Monj got married and I sent him £100. Clydesdale Bank informed me that the cost of this transaction was £62.50. ...  Read the complete review

This is a truly appalling bank and I hope your site puts off any potential customers. Our telephone banking service was inoperable today and the final explanation was that it had been cancelled 2 weeks previously as they thought it had been fraudulently accessed - a fact we were never informed about (it wasn't the case needless to say, but if ...  Read the complete review

Clydesdale bank in £128 is half of £360 shock! After agreeing to clear five cheques,the day before my salary went in, the bank bounced them and charged me £128 plus a £32 penalty. Then bounced them again even though my salary had gone in the next day and charged penalties totalling £360. When I complained, they offered to refund 'half' ...  Read the complete review

The Clydesdale Bank.... now where can I start ??? To give you a few clues why you shouldn't bank with them I've put some of my main problems into headings: 1) Despite the staff being friendly enough face to face... wait for the letters to start. At £14 a letter you expect them to be printed on gold leaf or at least from a nice ...  Read the complete review

I have never had so much trouble with a bank as I had with the Clydesdale.This review is aimed at students trying to choose which bank to bank with. I chose the Clydesdale - who like all banks tripped over themselves to offer me huge overdrafts and credit cards during my expensive study days at Glasgow Schol of Art. All was well and good - ...  Read the complete review

I was puting in enough money to cover all my bills and some extra so that when home I couold ...  Read the complete review

I have banked with Clydesdale for about 1 1/2 months - and that was enough. After my wife and I moved to Scotland from Australia we shopped around for a current account and ended up at Clydesdale. They seemed to be the easiest going and least paperwork fanatic. Which was true until we actually wanted to use our account. We received our ...  Read the complete review

I have banked with the Clydesdale for 20 years and this week decided that enough was enough and to change to another bank. My main argument with them is this - I have 2 accounts. One is for all the direct debits e.g. mortage etc. and my partner and myself transfer funds into it each month. The second is my own personal account. On several ...  Read the complete review
