Internet Banking
 

Just wanted to see have prevalent the use of internet banking is.

Re: Internet Banking
 

Never use anything else - I couldn't tell you what year I last actually visited a bank.

I use yorkshires banks ybonline, esp coming towards pay day so i can check when its in. Also usefull for paying bills.

First Direct for me-I can honestly say that they are the most efficient & professional company I have ever dealt with, & would recommend them to anyone. :)

I'll concur with that, but it can still be quicker to call than log on to do things.

I'll call for queries and log on once a month to pay all my bills.

The TXT message banking is the most usefull part. SMS of recent transactions a couple of times a week - fantastic.

I use internet banking with the Ulster Bank.
Its love it, instead of writing out a cheque, just log on and pay my bills just takes 5 minutes.

Cheques are fast dying out...

Barcleys.co.uk for me. Before that I used TSB

Re: Internet Banking
 

I use HSBC and it's still too paperworky, to do anything I have to wait for a mandate to come in the post and be signed which is silly cos I can't do one off payments at all. They do look like improving the service though.

Re: Internet Banking
 

Always use The Royal Bank of Scotland internet bank. All they try to do at my branch is to try to get you to get a loan from them. So it's best to avoid them.

The service is very good, as I can pay bills, set up/cancel standing orders, etc and look at my credit card balance.

Barklays for us as well.....the bunch of incompitent idiots that they are!

Re: Internet Banking
 

i don't do much internet banking, but when i can be arsed to remember to check things i do use the net.......

i bank with lloyds tsb.....crap bank and am going to be changing over to the abbey soon........well i get cheap rates etc cos i work there :p..and if i have an abbey bank account my wages clear a few days earlier than with another bank account :p

i am also going to be setting up an e-saving account, so i can put my money away each month (fantastic interest rates...not that im trying to sell our products or anything :p)

Re: Internet Banking
 

too true. I pay my mortgage from a Barclays account. Supposed to pay on the 1st of the month, noiticed on Saturday 29/11 that they had already took my payment for 1/12.

Re: Internet Banking
 

They say it's because they like to take it the night before the due date but that was a Sunday. Since Sunday isn't a working day they took it on the last working day before that due date......and kept your money an extra 2 days earning them interest....gits!
