What are First Direct like when it comes to application processing now adays.
I applied 2 years ago thinking it would be a easy being a HSBC customer however it turned out to be quiet difficult.
Basically I was grilled by an underwriter, I thought I was on trail for murder or something in the end i told them to duck it !!Im an ex employee RBS GroupHowever Any Opinion Given On MSE Is Strictly My Own0 -
