Reviews

Savings Guru Verdict

PCF's shares were suspended on the stock exchange in May 2021, and their Chief Executive (Scott Maybury) resigned with immediate effect shortly after the suspension.  The suspension was lifted in January 2022 after completion of an independent review.

PCF have since come back in to the market and while the Group continues to work through the review, maximum deposit levels have been capped at the £85,000 FSCS limit.  Given this, we are happy that savers money is safe with PCF and to list the bank on our site.
