Advantages: A discounted mortgage rate for two years Disadvantages: Impossibility of talking to anybody
I have never had such a bad customer service experience before taking out an Isle of ManBankMortgage. I organised it through a Financial Advisor and from the first contact with the Bank I realised that things were going to be difficult! On the day of the exchange of contracts they suddenly "remembered" paperwork that needed to be signed and I had to make three separate trips to the Bank.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Isle of Man Bank
Advantages: Online Banking, Also good first account for young people Disadvantages: sometimes can be hard to get through on their phoneline

Isle of ManBank Limited is part of NatWest Offshore Limited, which is a subsidiary of the Royal Bank of Scotland (not to be confused with the Bank of Scotland btw) It was established in 1865 and has 11 branches situated throughout the island.

Artificially enhanced cheese production? No.
Now, here we come to the nub of this review. Isle of Man mature cheddar cheese. We were lucky enough to find ourselves at the press launch day of the Isle of Man Marketing Partnership at the BBC Good Food Show. By the way, if you read this before the end of Saturday 27 November, DO try to get to the BBC Food Show. It really is a gourmet's day out!
One of the many items on the well-designed and well-laid out stand was Isle of Man Mature Cheddar.
How to describe Isle of Man Mature Cheddar? It is not as easy as it sounds. It has a good ...
