They give 5.5% on the current account balance upto the first 2,500
You need to credit the account with over £1,000 per month
Service is okay |

I'm in the middle of transfering my current account over to them and they are very slow with setting up the Direct Debits !
Its 4 weeks on and theyve still not set them up properly and I have DD's due !
So if your changing banks, do the DD setups yourself don't leave it to A&L |

Most banks are slow in transferrign and setting up so its always a good idea to do it yourself |

I've been with A & L for a year. They have great interest rate and on-line banking is fine, but yes they made a dogs dinner of the switch and DDs - I complained hard and got £50 compensation.
Their telephone support is mixed (fine for everyday enquiries, poor for anything unusual) and slow to get through. Do NOT use their phone line, call their free credit card line and select option 2 for banking (0800 0688638) |
