I applied for the fixed savings account 4.7% for 9 months. Like most of the reviews on here. Took nearly 3 weeks to open account. Then they sent an email asking why I not deposited funds. I responded I had not receive the relevant details to do so. These were then sent via email. I did manage to set pay details up but set up the nominated payee as Bank not myself. I could only do it like this I was told to use my reference then it be moved to my savings account . That was only way I could do it then monies would be transferred to acct. I sent nominal amount first to check it went in. I was a bit dubious at this point as never had monies deposited this way. Once all deposited the actually savings account was not fully operational. I was only able to accessvery basic details and could not see my nominated account details either. To cut long story short there were then too many mis communication from the bank on this and lack of clarity. So I was getting very concerned about the security of my funds with them. I have now duly closed the account and requested funds to be sent back to me as I could not as nominated account was not accessible to do so so, say no more !! Received my funds back on 27 August much to my relief. Would never deal with them again. I went off recommendation from Money Saving Expert. I wonder how many more did ?!
