    However, this will (probably) ensure they continue to email me with their latest offers, to which I can scornfully reply !!
    Don't worry - they continue to send them even after you've closed the account. (Something they have in common with ICICI)

    they must have the worst PR in the financial sector.

    I actually believe ING Direct have an excellent PR department. Afterall they managed to make an interest rate decrease appear to be an increase a month or so ago.

    Compare this with A&L who took a day a two to update it's website regarding the increase to it's DirectSaver account from 5.80% to 6.10% AER. Even now there's no big splash screen advertising this fact ... there's only a message on the bottom under the Savings and Investment section.
