My wife and I are absolutely disgusted at the lack of service and lies from M&S Bank. I spoke to the bank on the 30-7-20 to ask for funds to be transferred from our savings account to our lawyers to pay for the deposit on our new house (£207k). I was told they would have to transfer the funds into our current account and that someone from security would call us on the 31-7-20 to action the transfer. I was working and therefore asked them to call my wife that day to activate as she is joint account holder. This transaction was to enable us to exchange contracts for completion 7-8-20. To cut a long story very short, no call was received from the bank and despite numerous calls and promises it would be completed that day, the money is still sitting in our account! It's the lies that upset us the most and in these unprecedented times we could even deal with the family background noises as their staff are working from home. Who knows when our lawyers will receive our money and if we will even manage to complete next week. We've lost the will to be honest and M&S Bank, SHAME ON YOU.....
