I wanted to open an account on an ISA of £20000 to save paying income tax on my savings, Haze Parker talked me through the process of an ISA account, she was very helpful and professional, I will open another for 2025/2026 tax year to save more. Reviewed on: 2nd April 2025

Different accounts for savers.

I wanted to add more money to my existing savings account - which I did. But then it was discovered that the added money went over the prescribed amount allowed so I then had to transfer the surplus amount to another account (senior saver). It required a further visit to the branch but in the end it was all settled satisfactorily. Reviewed on: 6th December 2024
