Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I have a cash isa which is easy to manage online giving clear information about the amounts you can deposit and withdraw. Easy to telephone if you need to speak to staff.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Been banking with Shawbrook for a few years now. They have very competitive interest rates and their website is very easy to navigate.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Always great service from Shawbrook Bank. I’ve been using Shawbrook for years- they are always helpful and attentive. Rates are not quite as competitive as they used to be but still good.

Nice company to deal with

Very easy transaction and very helpful staff at the end of the phone.
Though, I was surprised they didn't send me an email to confirm my transfer was deposited.

These people are unreliable

These people are unreliable, seem to like locking you out of your account and not transferring funds out of your account as instructed.Announce 35 minute waiting time to answer the phone, unacceptable when I’ve got circa £300 k invested for nearly ten years. They tell you that they have transferred your money when they haven’t. They give you incorrect information and are not trustworthy, I’m going to start legal proceedings.

Usual excellent service from Shawbrook

Usual excellent service from Shawbrook, when my ISA matured. Very easy to check and switch to a new product. Very good communication at all times during the process. Reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because there are a few other companies out there with ISA rates slightly higher. I have had good service from Shawbrook for a number of years but decided to stay.

The small investor's experience.

They were giving good interest rates for your investment amount. When I had a finance issue they sorted it out for me. You can connect with someone (in person) when you phone.
