Melton building society savings account

Hi,

Does anyone have experience with Melton building society please? I'm interested in opening their Adcock Regular Saver account, but I'm a bit put off by the fact that there doesn't seem to be a way of applying online. You need to print off the application form and mail it in.

Once the account is open, is it possible to monitor and transfer money online?

Thanks

    I've used them for a couple of years. If you phone them they'll send you a postal application pack with prepaid envelope. You can register for online banking and view your accounts on there. As part of the application you can also set up a nominated bank account.

    If you want to make a withdrawal you can do so online by logging into online banking and sending them a secure message requesting they send the funds to your nominated account.

    EDIT: Appears to be branch opening only now (did previously allow postal applications). Thanks @GrumpyDil

    No experience but the current T's and C's suggest you can now only open in person anyway and doesn't suggest online access is available.

    Opened by post 
    Can be viewed online
    May not receive prepaid envelope
    Verification of nominated  account may take a original statement not a online print out.
