Good Points: High Interest rates
Bad Points: Within a year, they will always lower the interest rates. Then they smuggly advertise a new account with higher interest rates! It's just not worth the hassel. I was even fined for going over drawn cause on the SAME DAY, money went out before it went in, i.e i was fined £25 for being overdrawn for a split second! I also get fined for not putting enough money in my account every month and if i make a withdrawal from one of my accounts i get no interest for that month. In summary, what appears to be money saving, ISN'T!
General comments: A&L attracts customers with high interest rates, but read the small print.....too many catches which means you don't end up saving anything.

Appalling service from Alliance & Leceister International. After 3 months my e-saver account is still not set up.
Service is bottom of the table.
3 months & my e-saver account is still pending awaiting to be set up.
Three times I have called. On the last two occasions I was told that my account would be set up that day - total balderdash.- Read Guest's review (64 words)

I have several accounts with A&L, one of them had to be topped up every month to receive the high interest rate. I decided to set up a standing order to do this automatically. However, A&L contacted me to let me know that i was over drawn one month and had to pay £25. I was confused as i had several thousand in there.
What A&L did was take money out of my current out to go to my high interest account before accepting the standing order into it.
i.e I had less than £500 in my cur ...- Read djferros's review (297 words)

I would definately not use the Alliance and Leicester Savings Account, if they cant deal with customer queries in a friendly manner then I have no confidence in them at all.- Read merrini's review (84 words)

The Savings Account rates at Alliance and Leicester are very competitive but very difficult in starting up. I have a joint account with HSBC, but my wife and I have to have separate accounts with A&L. Regular Savings were to start 1st January (stated by bank staff) but the 'welcome' pack stated it would start on the 1st February.- Read tthomas's review (135 words and 1 comment)

All I wanted to do was open a fixed term ISA with the Alliance and Leicester. Funds were to come from:
a) my bank account
b) an existing ISA account with A & L
c) a transfer of ISA funds from another Building Society.
However, when I walked through the door, I was told that they could not deal with such business there and then. I would have to make an appointment. On the appointement date I turned up to find that I was going to be handled by the "mortgage specialist" who had no experience ...- Read ALIBE's review (304 words)

Their rate is actually 0.6% more than BOE base rate, good value but you only could save with a £25K maximum.- Read XX's review (25 words)
