Not great.

TSB is being sold off soon isn’t it? Bought for £1.7 billion and will sell for a couple quid

I was with TSB for about half a year. It was OK, 1.5pc interest rate on any funds not needed week to week. The app however gradually began to barely ever work, I received £50 in comp but switched away when other banks started offering bribes. It now doesn’t pay any interest, I think they have an account that can pay you £5 for using the debit card a bit though

You can find lots of topics on both those banks by searching on here. Also check out some reviews websites like Trustpilot.

This will give you far more experiences to read and form your own conclusion from.

Get some ID?

That’ll make things easier in the long run and give you a wider choice of (better) banks.

Most banks allow you to deposit cash and cheques in at Post Offices - do you have a local PO you could use?

You woudn’t need ID - just your bank card (and perhaps a paying in slip depending on the bank in question)

You’re going to need ID for many more things other than a bank. It’s worth the small investment.

I was with the Lloyds TSB since I was in my early teens, had the account all through my university days and then my Graduate Account. Once they split and became TSB, it all went downhill from there. Such an unreliable service!

Co-op bank no longer has any link to the Co-operative society and their future is uncertain. Caveat emptor.

All in all, play the slightly longer game and get some ID. It’ll make sense down the road…

Out of interest, what ID did you have?
