Nice and quick. Polite and helpful staff. Answered all of the questions I needed to know. The BS could do with updating so they don’t need a savings book which other banks have out one with now. Reviewed on: 31st October 2019

Improvement: The photo copying machine did not print out my details opposite to the questions asked, difficult to interpret. Advisor kindly hand wrote out another form which I then happily signed. This problem with the equipment needs urgent attention. Reviewed on: 8th June 2024
