Moving over to Wales in September and am very excited at the chance of using an ethical bank to place my measly money in.

Anyone had any dealings with Smile, Co-Operative bank or any others?

Any welsh specific ones?

Thanks guys

What are they, some sort of credit union type deelies?

 

[oh shit]

Smile is part of the Co-operative isn't it?
i've been with the co-operative since 2002. i'd definitely recommend them. never had any problems and got some of my charges refunded easily when i was paid a day late or whateva... i don't know too much about interest rates and shit like that, i just know they're pretty helpful and easy to bank with and the money doesn't pay to cut down the amazon or whatever.

Hi Bernard.

Just started looking into it this morning so no nada so far. The Co-op seems great just gotta see whats best fee's wise and ethically.

I'll let you guys know my findings.

I'm with the cooperative bank. They have an office on Mary street in Cardiff.

my only gripe is their level of paper communications... but they are a business/bank at the end of the day - otherthan that I think they are up there with the top ethical banks
