    Not got any email here either. Good (?) to see they are still as chaotic as before.

    I got my email today as well. Not that it matters I hoiked all but a fiver out at the last drop. Can be useful to keep a/cs open for future. Not had a great experience from them really - except the for 3.17% of course! Don't like their website much. I had great difficulty printing tax certificates today. Got around it in the end.

    My account has £55 left in it - which was a compensation payment for a mistake they made

    It may be useful for future DD's

    Can you change the account for the DD ? For me it seems you can create as many extra accounts as you wish, but you can only have a single DD linked to the original account.

    Still, with an account open, it might be easy to open a further account just for a DD...

    Only one as you say - but its one better than zero

    I took what I wanted from them and moved on - plus the £55 to top matters off nicely

    Got my email this evening.

    My bonus runs out early June so it was going to be shifted anyway.

    I still have "closed" building society account ticking over that is paying 2.55% and I guess more funds beckon.

    I do wonder if the government give any thought whatsoever to the prudent saver?

    Still no email received here.

    I wonder if their employees read these forums and get a feeling of how they are preceived?
