Online pension transfers broken. No fix in sight

HL came out top for range of sustainable funds and are a big player. Attempted their online pension transfer, which fell over to a "website currently unavailable" message. Called helpline. Apparently it's been down "for a few weeks". Any date for a fix? "as soon as possible. We don't know when. Try this paper form instead" . Really not what I was looking for, for efficient online SIPP management. Clearly not a priority for them to fix. Nor do they even bother to warn you at the outset. Read more Read less

Their ISA Savings hub has the advantages of switching between accounts without the transfer time delay in Standard ISAs. I'm able to have the best interest rates within 24hrs to 48hrs as opposed to Upton a month, where interest rates could drop whilst in transfer. Their website is poorly designed with very small links positioned across the whole page instead of in one place, such as across the top or in drop down menus. I've uneccessserilly had to call up the help desk to ask how to do simple tasks, because the page is not intuitive. I'm pretty good with. Read more Read less

    High interest rate.

    I had an account for about 10 years and got a minimum 20% interest every year.
