prunella's Review of Birmingham Midshires Cash ISA
31st Aug 2009
Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Customer Service
When asking what interest rate my Isa had been reduced to, I was sent illiterate and illogical replies.
In April I attempted to transfer my Isas to Halifax.
Birmingham Midshires sent my money to their own Barclays account (?!!!)instead of Halifax, where it sat losing me my interest until Halifax tracked it down and it arrived in the correct account on 22nd July 2009.
B'ham Midshires has lost me 3 months of interest.
They should have an automatic system in place for compensation when these delays occur instead of leaving it to the customer to investigate the problem and claim back their lost money.
