I’ve used ii for several years now and had a recent query dealt with by Jack Kyriacou. He took ownership of the my query and resolved it within 24 hours. Have to say I find the customer service in general to be very good at ii. Thanks for your help.

Awful customer services by way of theme. You’ll be hit with a scripted ‘nothing we can do’ when, through persistence, services prove that there is actually an awful lot they can do, and will do…but you’ll have to wait an hour whilst they do what they could have done straight away. The attitude is ‘push off’

Appalling service

Appalling service, no response for days and my share transfer got cancelled.
It was a straightforward simple share transfer. It took II days to reply. 48h to thank me for the LOA provided and saying they will review. Another 3 days until they actually did. And it is a one paragraph document!
I have begged through my private messages for them to reply to Computershare. I have called the call centre and even the poor guy there couldn't get through to my "stellar" transfer team, he also had to leave a message.
They have not bothered to reply to Computershare either, who after several deadlines set and missed, simply now decided to finally cancel the transfer.
Was this transfer not making II enough money? I shocked this is how they would normally operate.
How can you just simply ignore all emails and comms? One reply to Computershare saying this is in progress would have been enough.

Excellent proactive support

I have received excellent support from Frazer M in helping to complete a SIPP transfer into ii. The transfer was not smooth (issue with the previous provider) and required considerable effort from myself and Frazer to get it over the line. Frazer was proactive, responsive and committed to getting the transfer completed. Without his support the process would have been considerably more frustrating and lengthier than it was. Thank you for your help.

Hi the charges are good but the old adage you get what you pay for is certainly true with ii. Why can’t you access your account details further back than two years? I asked and yes you can but need to pay an additional fee? Shame on you ii. Charging for looking at my own details..
