Chip savings and investments made easy.

I've been using the Chip app for several years now and I am very happy with it. Chip makes it easy to invest with already made up portfolios, depending on what amount of risk you want to take. The commission rates that they charge are pretty reasonable.
Chip also have several competitive saving products.
They have just brought out wealth tiers which give you extra benefits when you reach them.
The app is easy to follow,use and all information relating to any of their products is easy to understand instead of a load of jargon that you don't understand.
I'm definitely happy with the service that I've received from them and have no intention of moving away from them.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my year that I…

I've thoroughly enjoyed my year that I had with Chip. At the time of sign-up, I was given a really good rate for my savings, and the app was really simple to follow. Now what a lot of these companies may not realise is, anybody with savings, who happens to find themselves on Universal Credit at some point in their lives, the DWP, when you're inputting your finances into their system, it requires the last 4 digits of a bank account number. Some of the companies, don't give actual account numbers just in digits anymore, and use letters. This wasn't the case with Chip, so I was able to keep the DWP informed about my finances properly. It helps when it comes to your check up for proving that no fraud is involved, as these checks are stringent now by the DWP. Also, at the end of my account maturing with Chip, I was very tempted to stay, but found a deal with another company that offered me a better interest at the time, for the next 12 months. I contacted Chip about closing my account and Ryan A was brilliant. He responded within a matter of hours checking my details for security, which is vitally important, especially with all the scams going on these days, then closed my account, followed by a few days later, after the system generated them, emailing me a pdf file of my closing statement. This is also vital for DWP when closing an account. I would certainly return to Chip in the future without hesitation, should the interest rate I'm offered, ever improve again. Thank you Chip and Thank you Ryan A! Brilliant service!

No focus on keeping existing customers.

Their rates seem good, but only for introductory period and only available to new customers. No good rates for existing customers which is a poor business model because then they lose those customers.
They seem only interested in attracting new business and no focus on retention.

After my smart phone packed in, I was able to contact Chip and manage my account through email instructions. Security was thorough - it may be a bother, but it's reassuring... so, if your phone goes on the blink, or you lose it, fear not - your account is still accessible and usable.

So difficult to use

So difficult to use. All I wanted to do was a one off payment into account. It says I can use my card but then says it needs all of my online bank details. The account I want to pay from does not have online banking that I use. Try to query online but not an option on the chat feed and just go round in circles. Pretty poor all round and definitely do not recommend.

Hi Simon,

we’re sorry to hear how frustrating this experience has been. We understand you just wanted to make a one off payment, and we’re sorry the process hasn’t been as straightforward as expected.

Depending on the payment method, you may be asked to connect your bank account to complete the process through open banking. However, we appreciate this may not be suitable if you don’t use online banking with the account you want to pay from.

We’re also sorry you struggled to find the right support through our in-app chat. Please email us at hello@getchip.uk so our team can look into this and help clarify the options available to you.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience.

Avoid

The company makes it almost impossible to move your ISA away from them. They will claim not to have received transfer requests or that the request is missing certain information and needs to be resent. I have tried for over 3 months to get my own money from them with three different new providers' requests all rejected or Chip will claim not to have even received them. I sincerely regret ever having moved my ISA to this company. Yes the app is good but I'd give zero stars for customer service if this was an option as feels like it's impossible to leave

Hi Mr Ellis,

We’re sorry to hear how frustrating this experience has been. We understand how concerning it must be to have your ISA transfer delayed for several months, especially when you’re trying to move your money to another provider.

When we advise that we haven’t received a transfer request, this can sometimes be because the incorrect ISA provider has been selected on the new provider’s transfer form. We’d recommend checking that the correct provider details have been entered to help avoid further delays.

We appreciate that this process can be frustrating, and we’d like the opportunity to look into your specific case and help clarify what’s needed to move things forward. Please contact us via our in-app chat so our team can assist you further.

Thank you for sharing your feedback.

Holding on to funds of deceased estate, ongoing

My sister put a lump into their ISA on settlement of our parents estate. Unfortunately she then passed away herself a few months later and the company have stalled and held on to the funds, questioning the legitimacy of the solicitor dealing with her estate, even when provided with all the relevant documentation. Terrible experience.

We’re very sorry for your loss and for the additional stress this situation has caused during an already difficult time.

We understand how upsetting it must be to have your sister’s funds held up, particularly when you’ve already provided the requested documentation. While we appreciate how frustrating delays can be, there are certain processes and checks we’re required to follow when dealing with estate matters to ensure everything is handled correctly and securely.

We’d like the opportunity to look into this further and provide clarity on the next steps. Please email us at hello@getchip.uk so our team can review the situation and assist you.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
