What our customers say

Pratbubblor

''I have been absolutely delighted with the service received from the Durham branch of Handelsbanken.

The quality of the support and advice has been second to none, with the services being delivered in a friendly and accessible manner.

My wife and I required support with a self-build project and the products offered were specifically tailored to meet with our requirements. The solution proposed addressed all of our concerns and the funding issues associated with the project.

Since switching our banking facilities we have had no concerns or problems with the service provided and, whenever queries have arisen, the support from both the local branch and the 24/7 support line has been exceptional" 

Individual Banking customers

"When a major bank branch with whom we had dealt for over 20 years closed we decided to look for a new bank. 

Handelsbanken were recommended to us and after some research we transferred in 2018. Once up and running we have found their service friendly, personal (we are known by virtually everyone in the branch), and always helpful and positive. A much missed “older” style of banking. We have a personal account manager who knows us, and does not rely on a computer screen for information. Both Bank and staff are a genuine pleasure to deal with.

Yes, this comes at a price but it is modest and worth every penny! 

Handelsbanken suits our needs perfectly!"
