Having read some of the reviews I was a little nervous of my decision to switch to A&L after being with my old bank for over 30 years.
I have to say that the switch was so slick and painless that I'd do it again without doubt.
There was a couple of debits that went through on the old account when I ...

Not really had any problems with my Alliance and Leicester direct current account. Will switch after interest rate falls I think though - no prizes for loyalty!

I have a premier account with Alliance & Leicester for my personal use and a Current account for my joint direct debits etc. When I transfer money across to either it takes 48 hours to clear, even though it shows in the statement the money is there, it hasn't 'cleared' so I get charged for when dire ...

Appalling Account - don't be tempted by the interest rate as not every one will never get it....Also the online system is confusing with three balances telling different stories, customer service is non-existent - they prefer to wait 56 days (8 weeks) then recommend you contact the ombudsman, they a ...

Because of the poor interest rate I was getting with Alliance & Leicester (though I've been with them more than 18 months), I transferred my Current Account to another Bank using the other bank's automated transfer service (where all one's Direct Debits and Standing Orders) are automatically taken o ...

Been with Alliance & Leicester building society for almost a year, no problems. The online bank account is easy to follow and track your in's and out's. The only thing i would say I dont like is that it doesnt update your balance in real time.

It took a lot of paperwork and numerous calls to transfer the running of my previous account to A&L. However, I stuck with it and proceeded with the bank.
I have only been with the bank for just over 8 months and have been charged approx £250 over three times for being overdrawn...sometimes ...

Alliance & Leicester Premier Direct Current Account seem to charge for everything, no exceptions. I have had payments from my business account returned for no apparent reason, not only would they not investigate why (apparently they hold no record - which would in turn be breaking regulations, I wo ...

Alliance & Leicester Premier Direct Current Account is best ( then it's all YOUR fault)! Telephoning involves the now-normal muzak and long wait, at your expense. Transferring non-routine large amounts using their premium-rate CHAPS service failed twice, but I got refunds after writing complaints.

I was a Giro Bank customer and was swallowed up into the A&L. Tried recently to change to their 50 plus account from their premier account. Oh my goodness what a mistake. To keep it short the call center staff are impatient (probably overloaded with work) But they are not able to deal with any q ...
