I used to be able to renew my fixed rate ISA's on-line, now there seems to be have been an update in the on-line system and I am unable to do this and had to renew it via a telephone call with customer services. This took a lot longer and is considerably less convenient. Reviewed on: 26th February 2024

REALLY REALLY SHOODY BANK!

REALLY REALLY SHOODY BANK! You keep sending me KYC forms for my business savings account which don’t come from a saffron email address and don’t link to the saffron website then you don’t reply to emails I send questioning their authenticity but you keep pestering me to fill it in! Reply to emails and I’d you’re going to ask customers for personal details then at least send it from your official email addresses you amateurs! Reviewed on: 26th February 2024
