Birmingham Midshires not worth the hassle

One month and still the instant access account is not fully operable. Endless to and fro of paperwork. Paperwork incomplete so telephone follow up necessary. Telephone enquiries held up with a very long monologue which is entirely unnecessary. Telephone operatives slow. All for 1.6% gross; and that's only variable (only 1.35% gross guaranteed for one year).

    Mine was set up and operational in just over 2 weeks -I'm parking some cash in it whilst deferring my State Pension. Only issue I've had so far, was that the password that I set up initially didn't work so I had to reset, but not too painful as I did it online.
