Their Customer Service Centre is based in the U.K. with friendly, welcoming, courteous and knowledgeable staff who invariably answer calls very promptly. Moreover, Charter Savings Bank's website is clear and easy to navigate. Their rates of interest are VERY competitive - however, the Instant Access Account is constantly being relaunched, thus offering higher rates to new customers. To stay ahead here, one has to keep watch for new issues upon their website, open new accounts as and when and close down the old ones. This is fiddly and shouldn't be necessary. Not only is this time-consuming but also complicates filing a Tax Return. Read more Read less
