Review of the Post Office, Savings:

"easy access" savings account with no access to your savings

Several months after opening an easy access online savings account and depositing a significant amount of money, I attempted to make a withdrawal, only to be presented with the message "TRANSFER CANNOT BE APPLIED AT THIS TIME" On calling the 0800 number provided I was told that there was a technical fault with my account and "there's nothing I can do".... I filed an official complaint which was effectively ignored with the response "The complaints team is not trained to deal with such complaints" I remain unable to access my savings or close the account and my only course of action now would seem to be via the financial ombudsman.
