This branch has closed now so you will need to go elsewhere for anything more than a cash machine!

My bank of many years, this Clifton branch has treated me well. It’s always busy, with a line full of students, impatient small businessmen (that’s the businesses that are small, not the men), and a few OAPs. They’re pretty sharp at getting people to the desk to bring the line down, though. All in all they have my endorsement as espite my ability to repeatedly lose my card, lose my bank statement, and forget my pin number, they’ve unfailingly managed to help me out. If they can look after me competently they should be able to handle most customers.
This is a bank so keep your wits about you. They’re only to happy to sign you up for a credit card (particularly if you’re soon to be a student), and when the friendly looking advert says ‘Lets talk about mortgages’ don’t get pulled in. A good bank but a bank nonetheless.
