### 1/5 — Repeated problems with the App

*2026-07-01, version 2.6.6*

You can open an account and save money, but if you want to check your account or access your money, good luck.

### 5/5 — Cash ISA

*2026-06-28, version 2.6.6*

Extremely easy to open

### 5/5 — Easy Access

*2026-06-26, version 2.6.6*

I find it refreshing that I can log on so easy and see my accounts all on one page. 
I can open another account in seconds of which I did and transfer what I want across. 
The messaging facility is so easy to send. 
Overall I’m very happy with the simplicity of the Skipton online account.  Why do other banks complicate  the system.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2026-06-16, version 2.6.6*

I really don’t like the app for mortgages. It doesn’t show your statements such as it’s not clear on how much we are paying per month there’s actually coming off on our capital and how much is interest. There is a clear breakdown every month. There is also always issues on the app and you can’t always do payments on there. Overall the app it’s just very poor.

### 1/5 — Awful App

*2026-06-11, version 2.6.6*

Horrendous experience with this app - still can’t get in - other financial apps MUCH superior! 
Avoid if possible!

### 3/5 — Not easy to log in

*2026-06-04, version 2.6.6*

I could not find the information I needed and it took along time to log in.

### 1/5 — Awful update

*2026-06-03, version 2.6.6*

Spent ages registering with errors keep coming up even though I put the right authentication codes in from both phone and email. Then despite give me alert that it hadn’t worked it logged me in and I was appearing to be live now I’ve just received an email through saying you’ve still got a register and it’s taking me out of the app and put me back to Square one again why are wire releasing app that is gonna be tested on its actual users and put them all in inconvenience? Absolutely awful approach. Have you worked in the software industry for 30 year This is exactly how you don’t do it.

### 3/5 — Interest …

*2026-05-28, version 2.6.6*

One useful addition would be to list interest relating to each savings account.

### 2/5 — Not easy to access

*2026-05-20, version 2.6.6*

Constantly being logged out of account on line. Password confirmed by phone by helpline and then locked out again a few days later. This is a very poor site . I do Internet banking and have no such problems with them.

### 5/5 — ISA

*2026-05-19, version 2.6.6*

Awesome easy to access easy to use
