### 3/5 — Ok in general, but…

*2026-08-15, version 2.93.0*

I like the less is more feel of the app. One issue is an occasional crash that goes to a black screen. Swipe out and back in and it’s usually ok.

### 3/5 — Good but poor update process

*2025-12-01, version 1.65.13*

Why does it wait for me to open the app before asking to update? None of my other apps do this. Otherwise it’s a good app

### 4/5 — OAKNORTH FTD

*2025-08-02, version 1.64.18*

Excellent mobile app but poor fixed term deposit rates.

### 5/5 — Savings

*2025-07-09, version 1.64.16*

Great saving rates and very easy to use app.

### 5/5 — Reinvestment with OakNorth

*2025-06-16, version 1.64.16*

Nice easy process with no problems. Interest not the best rate as better rates available but for ease I reinvested .

### 5/5 — D M

### 4/5 — Thumper

*2025-05-08, version 1.64.9*

I can highly recommend this institution, I concur them to be honest, reliable, trustworthy and the customer service level support is market leading.

### 5/5 — Easy Peasy!

*2025-05-05*

I've been using Oaknorth for a couple of years and found the App so easy to use. The rates are extremely competitive. At the moment, using Oaknorth is a no brainer!

### 3/5 — Password

*2025-05-04*

I became very frustrated when my password kept being rejected. I had complied with the different requirement, all were ticked but still wasn’t accepted. I had one last try with a smaller version and at last I got through. My original was 15 characters long, my accepted was 10 characters. There was no indication about this which almost lost them my business !

### 5/5 — Savings Account

*2025-04-15, version 1.64.3*

Great app which is easy to use and navigate around, loving OakNorth!

### 5/5 — Barry

Been our first experience of isa , the app has been great and informative through out  would and will recommend.

### 5/5 — ISA

*2025-03-04, version 1.64.0*

Easy Peasy once I managed to sort my password the process was clear.

### 5/5 — OakNorth fixed rate savings

*2025-02-09*

Set up on line very easy, good rate.

### 1/5 — Interest underpayment

*2026-08-27, version 2.97.0*

The bank underpaid my interest, this must be fixed.

### 1/5 — Allowance

*2025-06-05, version 1.64.14*

This bank was will not allow you to keep your tax free allowance unless you stay with them

### 1/5 — A poor FS company

*2025-03-25, version 1.64.2*

A dreadfully poor FS company. Poor customer service - best avoided.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2024-12-31, version 1.63.0*

The app fails to sign in first noticed 29 Dec 2024. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2024-04-24, version 1.53.0*

Tried opening an ISA. Completed all the required fields and after several long steps was told something went wrong and left on a blank screen. Really doesn’t give you much confidence!

### 1/5 — Can’t even use it

*2024-04-15, version 1.53.0*

I can’t create an account because my surname has a hyphen in it and it only lets me use letters.

### 1/5 — App is totally unreliable

*2024-03-28, version 1.52.1*

I cannot recommend this App, it fails with technical issues regularly and even more frustrating is OakNorth staff simply ignore requests for technical support. I would definitely look elsewhere

### 1/5 — Update Confusion

*2023-06-21*

When I go to the Oaknorth app on my phone. A short notice tells me I need to download the new update from the App Store. However, the App Store offers no update but simply tells me to open my app -- which takes me straight back to the motive tellingI me to update the app at the App Store! I've gone round this circle several Times Now, just in case the system might click in and offer the update. But with no luck. I am therefore locked out of my account. At a time when a one year fixed savings account is about to mature.

Can you please attend to this? Either I don't need an update, or you need to provide it. Until you act, I'm effectively locked out of my account.
Thanks.

### 2/5 — New app layout

*2026-08-10*

What was there before app “improved” was simple and fine.  Now when I open app there’s a completely pointless graph and it takes longer to navigate to my account.  Just because you can show me a useless piece of information doesn’t mean I want to see it.  Don’t waste money breaking a functional app use it pay savers more interest!

### 2/5 — Version 2 of the app

*2026-08-07*

I hate the new version. The old one was much, much better for those with a visual impairment. There are sections of the app that cannot be enlarged and the print, graph notations are very small and spread far apart. The old version was much more readable, this new version is useless to me. I may have to leave this bank if I cannot have a more useable app. Can I return to the old version please?
