Advantages: Convenient, Ethical, Competitive

Disadvantages: None, none, none

I have banked with the Co-Op for about 30 years, in that time having several different accounts, both personal and business. Whilst there have inevitably some frustrations during this long period, I have always been happy with the speed and courtesy with which these have been resolved. I have even had helpful treatment when the mistakes have been my own! My husband and duaghter both have similar experiences.
Most accounts offer fair rates.
The telephone banking is very convenient, and has been going a long time, so that problems were ironed out long ago. Link Points and post office access are available too.
The main reason, though, why I am in favour of the Co-Op Bank, is its ethical policy, which seems to me to be far superior to any other easily found bank's. The Co-Op is rigorous in deciding whom it will deal with.
So, with the Co-Op Bank, it is possible to have a good conscience and a good banking service.

Hi and welcome! I used to be with the Co-op bank and left when we lost our local branch. It was very good. I would have been really interested to read a bit more about the different accounts etc. Kim :-)

Bit short on any detail, hence my unfriendly rating. I have to admit I am more in favour of something for me than the good intentions of the CoOp re ethics and mankind!

I've always had a soft spot for the Co-op bank - ever since I once tried to pay a credit card bill using cash, and they told me they didn't have enough change!!
