It took me 3 attempts on consecutive days to get an answer to my telephone call. When I was on hold there was no indication of where I was in the queue. When I finally got through the lady was friendly, helpful and got the matter sorted. Reviewed on: 13th January 2021

Website needs much improvement. I was misled into believing I could enter my instructions for my maturing regular saver. Distressing experience. Next day, after queueing a long time on phone, kind young woman sorted it all out for me. Reviewed on: 12th January 2021
