Excellent.

5
Excellent. Tracy was very patient and worked out what the problem was. I have had a number of problems logging in as I do not often need to. It looks like the problem is that my autofil of password etc had got corrupted but it was not visible to me. It means that I need to manually input the login information. That should be OK.

Help afyer getting locked out

Had trouble after getting locked of my account due not using it very often and forgetting the details. Messiah was really helpful, resetting it for me and offering to stay on the line for two further steps to make sure I could log in and reset my password and memorable word Reviewed on: 8th September 2026

Tried recently to open a 1 year bond without success but spoke to a lady this morning who talked me through the whole process to completion . She was very patient and could not have been more helpful. Would certainly recommend your society. Reviewed on: 7th September 2026
