Opened ISA in branch and put funds on notice in existing savings account to transfer to ISA when notice period is up. Received an email about this approx a week later which mystified me so I rang up and the lady I spoke to explained everything to me very clearly. She was very helpful.

Efficient transfer of monies

5
Kendra was so helpful in advising me how to move money from my bank into an esaver. I had forgotten the sort code and account number of Saffron Building Society. Even suggesting a small sum first before transferring the rest to make sure all was well. She also phoned to let me know that the transfer had gone through and moved an appropriate sum from esaver to ISA. Patient and very personable Reviewed on: 6th September 2024
