I requested transfer of my maturing funds into a nominated up bank account and provided my bank account details. However I was told by your member of staff that the transfer would not be done unless I sent a copy of my bank account statement which is was not prepared to do. I was told that I therefore had to be send a cheque. This created more of a problem for me as I do not have a local bank branch. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025
