I have had a problem accessing my account and have rung six times. On each occasion I have received useful help, but because there was a problem with my memorable word I was locked out of access. On the fifth and sixth occasions I received excellent help from Lisa, who went above and beyond to ensure that my access was restored, and who was almost as excited as I was when I finally got into my account!
