My wife holds an 'online only' E-Saver acct. We understood this meant we could fully manage it online but not in-branch. But when going online to move cash elsewhere we found this was not so. Your branch staff did not explain this to us. Reviewed on: 14th December 2023

Would have helped if email saying how to deposit money was clearer, as I clearly didn’t understand that I needed both account number and bank account number / sort code to deposit money. Have now completed my transactions Reviewed on: 14th December 2023
