Customer service

Almost impossible to get through on the phone, tried for 30mins 1st day, 45mins the second day, just telling you to stay on the line, no indication as to where you are in the queue, very poor customer service. Decided to cancel newly open account. Stay clear. Reviewed on: 6th April 2022

Astounded by the independent award claimed

Astounded by the independent award claimed for best savings provider displayed on the leeds buildingsciety site. This society hardly ever comes up with savings rates to compare with others yet alone beat them. When they do their online application system is tiresome with, even after you have entered all your details, forms then also to be printed; completed then sent. If you fail to see a select option button on the final screen as my wife did recently for her ISA to be transferred in from another society there is no way to go back then select it. The documents they have prepared to be available for download, such as the applications, are not suffixed correctly so you yourself have to alter the file extent before you can open them. I have told them about this problem 2 years ago but they have not corrected matters so still are making the same mistakes. When you do have accounts with them they regularly unilaterally decide to close them then reissue those accounts as a new product. Unlike most other finacial companies they do not allow you to manipulate yourself any non-online accounts, it has improved more recently where you can send them a secure message to give instructions. Their secure message system is also not one of the best as messages can be sent but you do not have an inbox. They have been told about their failings but they seem unable to listen or understand they could possibly be at fault. Use them only if you need to or they have a better product than elsewhere then tolerate the defects. Reviewed on: 15th December 2018
