Anyone have an offset with Accord?

In the midst of an application and have just found out that there is no online access to the offset savings account(s) and any withdrawals have to be requested by POST!

This sounds slow and impractical to me... is this really how they operate? Has anyone managed to make it work for them?

TIA!

Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    Yes, they are not the most "user friendly" offset, more intended for long term, offseting where a few days won't have much impact, if you want convenience, Woolwich are probably one of the easiest, as any accounts in Barclays "should" automatically offset.
