if you need to speak to them about anything- forget it
ive sent about 5 secure messages to them in the last month - zero response, nothing
considering making a complaint
I’ve not bothered calling them as apparently they put you in a queue for an hour then just cut you off
absolutely disgraceful customer service0 -
It's a good product, if you don't need access for 6 months. I can't find anything better on the market right now.1

I've sent a couple of payments in the evenings (including a Friday evening) and they've been processed within a few hours.garyelder said:Just opened up a 6 month account, transferred a £1 as you do as a tester anyone know how long it shows when in the account

Officially it's the next working day though, so I would expect weekend payments to be processed on a Monday.
