Poor ID checking

I opened a new account having been a member for years and they asked for new ID which they wouldn't accept

They always seem to have very good rates of interest and keep me informed of new saving schemes. When I arrange, on-line, to transfer a large amount of money to another person’s account, they went out of their way to make sure that it was legitimate, without me feeling that they were interfering, not some anonymous text warning!

I have 2 cash ISAs with YBS - the only thing I dislike is that they close the account and stop you putting any more in it quickly, however now I know this, I'll just wait until I have the amount I want to save each year. Great interest rate of 5.2% on one of them and the app is really simple to use. Read more Read less
