I have a savings account with Cahoot which I have unsuccessfully been trying to close for some time. They keep asking me to send my id to their head office - which I have done by recorded delivery and have a receipt for this Online it states that they have frozen my account. They deny that they have received my id, which is untrue. On the phone they say they cannot help me. They have a complaint procedure online, but the phone number and email address do not work - phone out of service and email address unmonitored. I understood that savings institutions were legally obliged to have a working written complaints procedure which they clearly do not appear to have!!! Can anyone advise me what I can do, or give me a valid email or postal address for a complaint - I am sick of being held in a queue on the phone for 10 minutes plus! Any help greatly appreciated

I am struggling to find the option on the website to close my savings account with Cahoot that I’m not longer wishing to use. Is there a drop down I should be using?

Use the secure messaging, IIRC when logged in you access it via 'contact us'
I withdrew an old account to zero then later requested closure (to get the interest), and asked for it to go to another cahoot account. Oddly, they sent it by cheque.1 -
