CA Britline Stories

Read about our customers experiences of life in France

I have been with Britline (Credit Agricole Normandie) for about 15 years and have always had outstanding service from the Bank and its staff. They are knowledgeable, helpful and always respond to my queries. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Britline to anyone looking to set up a banking facility in Europe. In my opinion this is how all banks should operate.

I have banked with Britline for 6 years,since coming to France. They have always been fantastic. Helpful, knowledgeable and truly decent people to converse with. There’s no speaking to automated systems, it’s always real people who answer the phone quickly and ring you back! Absolutely love them. Thank you for all your support!

Britline service was excellent and they helped make our life so much easier in France. We loved how you could talk to a human being, and wait time was always short. Believe it or not English Banks could learn a lot about customer service from Britline!

Just updated the assurance policies for the house and car with CA Britline. So easy to do, so comfortable to talk with people who want to make it easy. Russell, my account manager, makes banking easy and I would like to say a BIG thank you to him. Great work Britline !!

We have banked with Britline for over 20 years and would highly recommend them to others who are looking for a very professional and customer - friendly service. Without exception any staff we have had dealings with have been efficient, knowledgeable and cheerful.

Amazing consistent people centric service! Always friendly always helpful. As a former CEO of 2 UK banks famous for service, (first direct & The Yorkshire Building Society) they are up there in the same excellent level.

World class staff and service in every regard. All members have displayed exemplary patience, courtesy and product and procedure knowledge.The correct person is always available, and is never in a rush to conclude a matter in hand until the client, myself, feels confident that matters are satisfactorily concluded. I am always treated as a friend. Thoroughly recommended.
