Re the maturity email re my regular saver. I'm happy to have an email not paper, but the email wasn't clear, and the link didn't provide enough information re how to do what I wanted to with maturity. Run out of space to say more! Reviewed on: 11th January 2022

I wanted to renew my savings account. After being held on the phone for 15 minutes I gave up- tried to do it online - rang again later to check whether I had done it correctly - I had not. Lesson learned: stay on the phone no matter what. Reviewed on: 11th January 2022

Your letter of 8.01.22 needs to be worded otherwise: 'WE have made an electronic payment in accord with YOUR request...'. Plus give me the SO details I need: account no, sort, reference, my new (or continuing) account no AT THE SAME TIME. Reviewed on: 10th January 2022

I have found all the staff I have dealt with exceptionally good. The music used when customers are on hold could be changed, it does no credit to the composer and orchestra. I did suggest using "I'm just mad about Saffron" Reviewed on: 5th January 2022

Online transactions seems to have some shortcomings. This all arose due to the regular savings account reaching maturity and instructions as to how I wished to proceed. Surprised that only one maturity option can be undertaken on line Reviewed on: 5th January 2022
