I thought I was going to have to write to move money in my accounts, but I discovered I could you a password service and made the arrangements over the phone which was much more convenient.

Customer Service Review:
Approval process was reasonably fast. But for the actual exchange, Skipton needs to appoint their own lawyers and they have been the speed limiting factor. There were instances that their lawyers took one week to respond.

Staff are very helpful on the phone. No complaints
Product Review:
What I really miss is that the bank does not advice you if better rates are available and it would be in the interest of the customer to move the funds to a different account. In addition I do not find the bank statements very clear.

Customer Service Review:
I was a little confused when the paperwork came through but a quick chat in the office answered all my questions. The service seems to be very professional and I'd have no problem in recommending them to friends or family.
Product Review:
I would prefer a better interest rate obviously but in the current climate it's probably not feasible.

Customer Service Review:
It is very regrettable that Skipton no longer offers fixed rate bonds. Customers were given no notice of this change. Without this offering customers will move to competitors who can provide their requirements. There will be consequential loss of business to Skipton reducing the profitability and sustainable stability of a relatively small market player.
Product Review:
The previously offered fixed rate bonds had acceptable interest rates and terms.
Response from Skipton International:
Thank you for your feedback.Skipton provides a range of deposit accounts across easy access, notice and fixed. We currently offer a fixed 1 year bond, two variable rate notice accounts and a variable rate easy access account. We always provide a range of accounts and rates to ensure that we have sufficient deposits to fund our continued growth in assets and profitability.
Kind regards
