CaterAllen 3.3% 1 FRISA

Howdo all,

Just wondering if anybody has experience of transferring into the above please ?

Have a few ISA's coming to maturity and looking to find suitable homes for them. One option might be the Cater Allen 1yr FRISA at 3.3% but being part of Santander I wonder how things might turn out :eek:

I would hope (optomistcally !) that their Private Banking arm might be slightly more on the ball with a dedicated "Private Banking team" - perhaps even nothing to do with Santander day to day but the address given is their Bradford office (9 Nelson Street, BD1 5AN) which also crops up for certain communication when dealing with Santander ISA's

Any feedback would be welcome - thanks.

FF

    So...who's thinking PO Box 1112 is metal, cylindrical in shape and emptied regularly by a cleaner? ;)
