Have used them since they started - never once had a problem with them. Always helpful if you ring and easy to use online banking. I would definitely recommend them.

Can’t fault them. Been with them for over 30 years. If you need telephone support I think their set up is second to none.

Fantastic, always top of Martin Lewis recommendations.
Calls answered very quickly by a Leeds based call centre. Great customer service. I moved from HSBC to FD, as an ex HSBC employee I would thoroughly recommend First Direct as they actually listen to you, look after their customer and will help you.

Same as above, I’ve banked with them for 12 years and have never had anything but a good experience with them. Even when things have gone wrong they’ve dealt with it swiftly and to my satisfaction

I used to work there and they are indeed based in Leeds. They may or may not still have a Scottish base but when that happened calls were routed to your closest venue unless waiting times were high.
Apparently Leeds was chosen originally as the Yorkshire Accent is ‘trustworthy’ (who knew!). I no longer bank there but enjoyed the time I did (although it was a tad boring and repetitive) but there was always plenty of staff available to deal with whatever problems arose. |

Been with them for 12 years and never had a problem. Always happy to help on the phone and never a long queue when ringing 😄👍
