If I can prevent one person reading this review from signing up for an account, then the time I wasted to write this review has been worth it. DO NOT EVER SIGN UP FOR AN ACCOUNT WITH THEM. Cardonemoney is fraudulent and unethical online banking company with unreachable customer service that you have to pay for (you have to pay for their time on the phone with you). this isn't even about the high fees they charge. My experience is about the difficulty I had in accessing my money after having an account with them for 2 years. they are using multiple types of schemes to make it difficult to access your account so they can continue to earn interest in the money that is being held in your account. long waits for customer service, website not working at times, and changing the way to login in to make it more difficult to get into your account. I was having issues with accessing my account because all of a sudden the online login asked for 2 step authentication but I never received any info for setting this up so it sent me in an endless loop of not being able to access the account. When I called customer service to try to get set up properly so i can start accessing my account, I was asked all my personal info including company email, address, name, date of birth, account number and still did not authenticate me to give me access.  Then they literally stopped answering my calls.  I can’t believe this was happening.  When I called the next day to try to get a different rep, the person literally hung up on me, I tried to call several times and no answer.  This is their main customer service number and I could not believe this was how they were addressing me not being able to access my account. At this point I realized that I may be in a fraudulent situation so I sent them a threatening message letting them know that I would be pursuing legal action. It was only after I threatened to sue and blast their behavior on the internet someone finally gave me my account access so I could get my money out as fast as I could and never have to deal with them again. They use to be cardonebanking and changed to caronemoney. think about it. they have no banking rules and protection being offered to the customer so they didn't want to be liable and changed the "banking" part of their name to "money". The bottom of the site mentions this: The CardOneMoney current account is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

Let's not forget why we use this Bank, usually because we can't get one of the "big four" high street banks due to bad credit etc They are up front with the charges so nobody's deceiving anyone! I've banked with them for over 4 years and initially intended to move to another bank when I built better credit, but I find their customer service very good and whilst we as a company handle very little cash or cheques their charges aren't that steep. o.k £7.50 is quite high for instant transfers, but if you've ever had a bank account with a high street bank and looked at your business banking charges at the end of the year there's not much in it so we have stayed with them. One negative was they weren't on the approved list for the Governments Covid-19 Bounce Bank Loan. This was a real shame. Otherwise no complaints at all!

I’ve been with this bank for a few months I’ve had no problems only thing is when money is credited to your account it doesn’t become available straight away other than that everything is good also everyone complaining about the call charges use the free complaints line it is the same line as the customer service ‭0345 872 8661‬

It's hard to know where to start Card one Banking are a money racketter business. The worse I have ever seen, you have to pay £7.50 to transfer your own money to another bank account if you have one. Disgraceful people should now be compensated for their negligence.

Haven’t been able to access my account for a week while on lockdown. A 10 minute phone call cost me £20. Please just avoid. Anyone with a good review must be a member of staff. Diabolical

It does exactly what it says on the tin. People complain about the 12.50 charge but it’s there for a reason for example missed direct debit payments, most banks would charge you but card one money doesn’t. I have been with this bank for 4 months now and I have never experienced a problem. They are working night and day to perfect security and secure access to your account. For example now when you login as well as asking security questions it sends a code to your designated mobile number. This bank is brilliant and I cannot complain

Cost a fortune to send money to other accounts. Charged a monthly fee even though they do NOTHING FOR you. THE MONTHLY FEE IS ON TOP OF THE FEES YOUR CHARGED EVERY TINE YOU LOAD YOUR OWN MONEY AND EVERY TIME YOU CHECK A BALANCE. THEN THE PHN BILL IS ANOTHER BILL TO PAY ON TOP AND EACH TEXTRO THE BANK IS CHARGED BUT NOT COVERED BY THE BANK. SO IT COST ME MORE MONEY TO GET ACCESS TO MY OWN MONEY THAN EVER IMAGINABLE. ITS A JOKE!!!!! They never ever send your wages or money to your account like normal banks do. I end up phoning them every month because i cant get to work because they have completed the transition to load in into my account. Then once its in my account i then have to pay 11p - 15p text message to and also 15p bank fee to load my own money then I have to wait up to an hour before i can access my own money. Then all these bank feesfor checking my balance loading my own money all mounts up each month. Then on top i have a heafty phone bill each month for checking my balance and so on. Most times money disappeares out of my account. Actually for several years on a weekly basis this happened. Some times after complaining the money would magically re appear. But 9/10 wouldnt. My bank has also been hacked several times and had large volumes of money taken from my account. Then had to get new ARM cards which i had the wait 2 weeks for. Staff are useless and rude, wont do anything to help. My money goes in on the same day every week but most times i cant even see it in my account until the end of the day, meaning i have no money to get to work. I once had the wait 6 hours in the snow at a tram stop after a 11.5 hour shift, until my money was actually loaded. The card machine goes down and money disappeares taking nearly 10 days to get it back. I haveseveral years of evidence to everything i say. I have 6 years of printed text messages and account balances where there is questionable behaviour. I STRONGLY WOULD NOT EVER RECOMMED THIS EXCUSE OF A BANK.

AVOID AVOID AVOID I wish I could leave a negative review. We opened a business account, had a VAT repayment one month ago, and the balance is still showing zero. Can't logon EVER using security questions set up, so you have to ring them - they have confirmed the receipt of the money from HMRC but still over one month later, zero balance in account so we cannot get the money. 11p a minute to ring, they keep you hanging on the phone and we will be closing this account as soon as HMRC have updated our records. Fortunately it's not a great deal of money, but why should they have it! We paid £55 to open the account, and why should they have a penny more for such an appalling lack of 'service'. As far as I am concerned they have STOLEN our money, and I shall NOT let this drop. AVOID AVOID AVOID

This bank has been great for me over the past 7 years. My only negative comment would be with the cost for instant transferring. My account was hacked, they had stopped the card before I rang to inform them all on the same day, and refunded the money immediately on returning the fraud forms.

Avoid this banking service . Moved a basic personal account to them big mistake. After 6 weeks they closed my account with no notice and no reason . Total waste of time . No one every responded to my complaint about compliance . They clearly do a search and mess you around if you have bad credit.

Took money deposits. Refused to pay out. Then closed the account. Then said they could not give any more details about why the account was closed or how to access my funds. I list thousands.
