Thank you so much for your 5 star review. Thanks Alex
Exceptional customer service.
Very helpful response to my email enquiry: I received a phone call during which the person I spoke to was extremely friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful. She was not going to leave me without having solved the technical problem I was having in accessing my account. I was so impressed.

I was having problems setting up a new ISA account on line, so I called the customer support number. I got through to Josh who was very helpful and patient. He guided me through the process as well as doing a lot of the input for me. I was extremely pleased with the outcome and the excellent service provided.

Thank you so much for your review and speaking to me this morning. I am glad we were able to resolve this query due to a difference in forename. whilst I understand this may have delayed the transfer I am glad now we can push forward to get this processed once we have your new transfer request. Thanks Alex
Excellent customer service.
A helpful and prompt service was provided that enabled me to proceed with an important financial transaction.
