Conister Bank Reviews

Just invested with these people for 12 months rate was descent and fairly easy to apply and fund but sent 2 emails to check money was in and although I had 2 replies saying they will get back to me ! Nothing for 3 days ! You need to do better on your communication I am afraid !

Broken I.T, snail pace response and endless phone queues from this bank. I applied for a bond online over a week ago and still no confirmation. Tried phoning and get a long wait. Then l get told that the application was incomplete but nobody could be bothered to tell me. It wasnt incomplete, l have the email telling me its been recieved and that they will get back to me with a decison. Terrible bank. Dont waste your time.

tried to open conister bank uk account. got 4/5 way through application, but then download stopped working. i have e mailed them 3 times for help and all they do is tell me to go back to my application [how?] because they can see the application number, but that is it.the application was not stored by me, cos it stopped! now they have changed the % rates , so i have no guarantee that if i try a. new application again, i will be generated a new account number and be eligible for the lower rate only. the point is, if this is the best this organisation customer service can do - which is nothing - i suspect their overall service will not be good. having now read some of the reviews…..

Opened a one year bond at 4.5% but funds sat in an instant access account not paying interest. Website keeps crashing and nominated account details not added. Can't close the account. It operates on the edges of the regulations clearly. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

As an Expat finding a Bank that will take care of your money whilst you are abroad can prove difficult, especially when the main stream banks don't allow you to bank with them when you leave the UK. Not only that, if you are lucky to still hold an account with your old bank, they usually only offer very poor interest rates on your savings. That's why I chose Conister Bank Ltd, who offer Expats like myself the opportunity to provide a service that suits me. Lastly, apart from AMAZING SAVING RATES did you know that they also guarantee your money under the Isle of Man Banking Deposit Compensation Scheme. So go-ahead and open an account today...

Spent 35 minutes completing application for 1 year fixed account. Crashed at the end! Waste of time.
