I didn’t have any problems…

I didn’t have any problems re-investing, I have had problems in the past, with Oak North, my password seemed to be rejected a lot, this time it wasn’t, and the interest is good, I am happy with that ,

Solid bank for saving accounts

I have been using OakNorth bank for many years now. Their saving accounts are generally very good and sometimes one of the best in the market.

Very easy to set up accounts and keep track of savings and interest. They are very clear about what you will get.

I recently had an issue with one of my accounts without even knowing. OakNorth contacted me proactively and even offered a goodwill for their mistake without me even demanding anything. When I called them later to make sure the issue is resolved, they confirmed it was within 2 minutes! Other banks would take at least 15 minutes from the moment they pick up the phone. This is a great example of how customers should be treated contrary to what high street banks do.

Honestly, if you want a solid savings account without seemlinglessly endless phone calls, then this is one of the banks to consider.
