Online Banking
Jul. 30th, 2003 01:53 pmApparently, we all like internet banking now. Rated out of five, the league table runs like this:
I'm with Barclays. It's generally pretty good, but over the past few weeks I've been wanting to use it more, and a few things could stand improving. For instance, you can't update your postal address online, you have to go to a branch (or phone) to do it. And you can't transfer money between all of your accounts; some of them need authorising, which is fair enough, but for a few types you're Just Not Allowed. You can see the balance, but not move anything in or out. Hopefully, the fact that they came fairly down the above table will spur them to improve things.
Meanwhile, a big thankyou to everyone indulging my two-day splurge of pretentiousness. It just feels good every so often. ;-)
Smile 4.4
First Direct 4.4
Co-operative 3.9
RBS 3.9
Nationwide 3.9
