Briefly, I opened the Abbey Direct ISA Issue 2 and transferred from Halifax. The transfer took somewhere in the region of 4 weeks.
Now that it's all setup though, I cannot access my account through the cash card they've given me!
And I recently tried getting internet access to my ISA. 2 weeks ago I ...

Abbey decided to put the interest earned by my ISA over the last two years into my current account. Numerous phone calls, calls into two of their offices and a letter on 4 April 2008 enclosing cheque for the amount involved have failed to get this interest returned into the tax-free zone. What is th ...

I recently opened an online Abbey ISA, which was unclear so checked in the branch. The staff were not properly trained to offer
professional advice and after an altercation with the branch manager I found I was £700 overdrawn on my cash account because the ISA had been incorrectly processed. ...

My recommendation would be not to touch the Abbey. They have not got one thing right for me so far, the staff are full of apologies but this doesn't mean you will get the service every customer deserves.

I recently tried to open a Direct ISA with Abbey. Everthing seemed to be going swimmingly until this morning when I received a letter from them saying I was yet to return my application form and supporting documentation - despite the fact I had returned these documents two weeks earlier.
After a 5 ...

I closed my current account 2 months ago due to poor service,they advertise 8% current account, trouble is they would not give it to you in writing, in the paperwork it only states 2.65%, so got fed up , and closed the account.
After taking out ALL my cash, got a cheque and letter, saying I had 53 ...

This is the worst postal account I've had - DO NOT make the mistake of being enticed my their attractive rates, as their poor postal service will take up to 2 months to acknowledge your deposit. I guess I should have realised sooner that this account was a no-hoper- after it took a good 10 weeks to ...

After a dreadful experience in opening a Direct ISA Account, which took between 6 - 7 weeks to transfer into Abbey from my previous provider, I received a mini statement of my account from Abbey, which contained not only an incorrect account number, but also the balance of my account. I deposited &p ...

I haven't received a statement for my ISA account for over a year. Although I have twice made a request over the phone, and once at the branch, to be assured they would call me back to apologise and send me one, but that was 6 months ago. I tried over the phone again today to some call centre where ...

I have held an ISA account with Abbey National from day one, and although I am not dissatisfied with the product, I feel the interest rates have slipped against the competition over the past couple of years, and I may shop around shortly.
The staff seem to change on the odd occasion when I call int ...
