    I went into one of their branches to open mine on the 7th. They sent my book through in the post 2 or 3 days later.

    My Mum sent her application and cheque off to the Head Office on 14th April, and only received the confirmation and passbook through a day or two ago.

    Think when I spoke to someone at a branch they said the HO had a huge backlog

    I opened one through a branch and am still waiting for the book to arrive, opened on the 7th I think, I did open a spring bond at the same time and received the certificate for that about 10 days ago.
    Hope for the best.....Plan for the worst!

    My OH opened his fxed rate ISA account 2 or 3 weeks ago and it was done immediately, the assistant gave him his passbook straight away. Further information came in the post a few days later.

    Friendly and excellent service.
