Good communication. Quick reply online without having to phone & talk to a AI/bot! Always followed up with paperwork e.g. end of year tax/interest on all accounts. Thank you Pauline Trehane

Absolute joke

Absolute joke! Literally made homeless, on anti depressants, desperately needed some of MY savings back due to major financial issues! Provided everything needed over and over again during a three week spell of unbearable anxiety and depression! To be met with a sarcastic email from "Ellie savings team leader" talking down to me! I'm not seeking a loan? Just my own money! I cannot claim IVA or bankruptcy ( which I do not want to do!) due to these savings! Only care about their own profit!

Still feel we receive a personal touch

My wife and I have been a customer for a few years now. Generally we find a professional team and our money feels secure.
Website is also good.
I have recommended my sister to also invest with you.
Due to her age would could not use your services without a telephone connection
