A disaster from start to finish. Apart from losing my initial application for a savings account claiming their servers were 'on the blink again' as they put it (!) when my account did finally go live they: 1. returned a payment to the sender for no reason and 2. Lost £230 after their servers went on the 'blink' again & denied the money was even there in the first place! Only after I showed them a paper statement & threatened them with the FSA did they return the cash (with no apology)
My advice, especially in these days of bad banks & the credit crunch, is to steer well clear. I have now closed my account & opened up a Tescos account who I read have better servers & an IT dept. who know what their doing.
If you insist on an egg account I would not deposit any more than you can afford to lose!
