You would not deal with my mortgage broker and then it was difficult to get to speak to anyone at the mortgage department that could handle my questions. By the time this happened, it was too late to switch on 1 Mar. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2021

Good communication - I received 2 calls to check that I had received the product illustration. This was just as well because the posted copy did not arrive, however Lizzie was able to send as a secure email to avoid further delay. Reviewed on: 2nd December 2020
