  • They can't deal with a matured account Market - don't be so rude

    you don't need R85's - its all verbal and you get a certificate

    they may well just vie you the £3 though - as they certificates should have been produced when the account was open
    Not all branch staff are thick - i am most insulted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • The ones I dealt with were,

    They did not even understand how the account works !

    There is something wrong if the customer knows more about the products they are selling then they do !

    For instance they insisted that only one account can be opened by each parent, wheras it is one account PER child PER parent so 2 children means 4 accounts.

    They did not know this, and insisted it was not so, hence 2 accounts had to be opened online, requiring another visit to the branch with ID's.
    Money is much more exciting than anything it buys.
  • ah well in my area they do. I don't personally deal with these as deal with mortgages but know about it

    got to say this - every branch does things different to another. I have just made this comment in the colleague opinion survey

    I still can't believe people are thinking they'd get the full interest on the whole amount though
  • Quite.

    The logical exension of this approach would that you get the full annual interest if you invest for one day on day 364 :rolleyes:

    Now there's a pleasant thought :)
