Very long wait time :(

I had been locked out of my account after incorrectly inputting my password in three times and I can’t get through to your main tel number due to my mobile network Spend Cap as your line will be a high charge, so I found a tel to your mortgage department who kindly out me through to your main call centre, but I was left on hold for over an hour, so very annoyed! I called your mortgage department back and explained how long I’d been left on hold and the chap I spoke to was AMAZING and said he would try to help rest my login, which he did and I was so grateful, as I know it wasn’t his main job remit! So, a 0/10 for customer service due to a ridiculous wait time, but a 10/10 for the chap in Mortgages who went ravine and beyond to help me, rather than out me through to a never ending telephone loop!

Setting up a new account

I was having trouble setting up a new account online so l popped into the branch. I was met by Alexis and Stephanie who took their time to set this up for me and answered all of my questions. Nothing beats face to face conversations regardless of how Al enabled our world becomes. I had a really nice experience. Thank you ladies. I promise to take you for a coffee when I win the next Windfall prize! :-) Reviewed on: 28th August 2025

Communications

All transactions online are excellent and easy to operate. Contact via telephone is a longer process as I had to wait at least 10 mins on two occasions and gave up on another. On the third occasion I managed to speak to Dylan who resolved the issue. Reviewed on: 27th August 2025
