I visited Edinburgh branch today with my elderly aunt who wanted to combine two existing accounts into one ISA. We met with Abbie. Abbie was extremely friendly, but equally very professional. She explained everything very clearly and at an appropriate level. Abbie also assisted me with transferring funds from my regular saver into an ISA. She made the whole experience stress free.
