Best bank for ipad friendly on-line banking

Posts: 1 Newbie
Hi,
Can anyone suggest a bank or financial institution that offers an easy, on-line banking service which is user-friendly on an ipad?
HSBC have changed their on-line banking site. The new site keeps crashing on the ipad, and on the rare occasion that it doesn't, I find it difficult to use; namely because it has been designed with really tiny windows popping up, with completely unusable scroll bars for an ipad. So, after the HSBC tech guy solution, that I use a computer instead of an ipad, I decided to look into changing banks. Naturally, my first port of call is MSE. First Direct comes up as a good option on MSE, but they appear to be linked to HSBC and I don't want to change to them if their on-line website is the same as the HSBC one. Does anyone know if this is the case?
Or can anyone suggest a bank or financial institution that offers an easy, on-line banking service which is user-friendly on an ipad, has branches that can be locally accessed and has a good customer service team?
Thanks

Lloyds, bank of Scotland, TSB, Santander, Nationwide, Clydesdale, Tesco all work fine on my iPhone.
Some of them need a computer to set up new payment recipients.
Santander?0 -

I'm with Barclays and their app works really well on my iPad. Never had a problem with customer service either.0

Lloyds banking group banks and Santander have very user friendly apps, in my opinion. The HSBC app is slow and clunky, and the new website is poor, imo.0

Halifax has an iPad spec app. It's excellent.
I assume Lloyds and Bos have the same.0 -
The Barclays iPhone app is excellent. Haven't used it on iPad.0
