I suddenly discovered the impossible task of seeing my account. This account has been accessible for over 10 years. The paperwork advised to call at my local branch. Total waste of time and parking money. A month later still no hope. Reviewed on: 12th July 2021

Tried to close a joint account but was told it had already been closed by the other account holder. This isn't good practice really. They didn't seem to care. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
