I discovered the products online and made an appointment in branch. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and it was easy to open a savings account. Since opening the account they have keep me up to date with offers and other products available. I have since opened another savings account with them and I am very happy with their service.

I think the probate level should be increased from �30k as this has limited me to the amount I have put into my ISA. I would have put a higher amount into the account. Reviewed on: 27th March 2025
