abbey fixed rate saver

shazkhan111

I am looking to apply for a abbey fixed rate saver, it says i can "apply" online, but when i go to the button, it just gives me a link to a PDF file (application form).

How can i apply for this account online, it doesn't tell me where i need to send this form to

any ideas?

And then,
they send you a letter and you have to visit a branch to collect your passbook, unbelievable, but true.

Passbooks have a secure signature in them, so they can only be issued in branch as you need to sign them there. You may as well just go to a branch to open the account though, then it gets done straight away.

The account can be opened and money paid in by Standing Order without the issue of a passbook. It is also likely (from previous experience) that you can phone up Abbey and ask for the maturity balance to be transferred to another Abbey account (e.g. current account or e saver) - all without the issue of a passbook.
