I have often felt that the special introductory offers to savers simply meant that existing loyal customers subsidise the rate paid to new savers. When interest rates of around 7% were achievable, this seemed easier to bear but now rates are so low, the extra rate paid to new ...

Every time I go in there, they try to sell me another Halifax service, despite the fact that I say no every time. I also take the opportunity to tell them that I cannot be the only person who finds their TV ads featuring Colin or whatever they call him so ******* irritating...

Why do I say this? Well the adverts shows the poor service Nationwide claim others may offer while their's is faultless. Oh that this was true!
Since Nationwide took over Portman, we have lost the helpful and simple methods of the Portman where clients were treated like re...

I'd been looking for a new current account after 10 years with my previous bank who I was becoming increasingly disappointed with. I don't ask for much - easy access, the ability to do most on the internet, and a friendly and competent human being on the end of the phone if I ...
