Difficult to find the branch .

Difficult to find the branch at Ashley centre. You might add more detail about where it is on the website. And when arriving to set up the account it would be very useful if the assistant could say his long the settings up is going to take. Reviewed on: 15th December 2025

Excellent phone call experience

I called and spoke to Messiah Black. I explained that I could not access my online account. She was very helpful and knowledgeable. She walked me through re-registering for the account. Her instructions were clear and she was very patient. I also gave her instructions for a maturing account. Reviewed on: 9th December 2025

An excellent response to my issue

My call was picked up really quickly. I rang because I was locked out of my account. The chap I spoke too was very friendly and reassuring, and they helped me get back in. I was impressed with their patience, and because they stayed on the phone to lead me through the process. Reviewed on: 8th December 2025
