It was quick to get through and the young man I spoke to was helpful and sounded knowledgeable. The only thing that could be improved is the interest rates Reviewed on: 30th May 2022

Now giving up as I’ve been obliged to spend far too much time chasing just to give you money. Doesn’t bode well for future. Reviewed on: 30th May 2022
