How is this company allowed to run like it does.
I invested £20000 . A few years ago and have made less than £1000 in interest . I might as well have put it in a bank or under my mattress.
If I withdraw then I'm subject to an MVR. Which I've never heard of before and would end up with less than £19000 . Some investment that is . I get notified re. An annual bonus for a couple of hundred pounds if I'm lucky and that seems to be that . Current bank rates are as high as 5% so just where is my money invested?
I see these same questions time after time in the comments section here.
Someone is making money but it certainly isn't the customers .
Not turning out to be a very friendly society at all . Are us investors merely funding society activities ?
Extremely dissatisfied and rather concerned that I'll never get my money back unless I pay a penalty fee to do so?
No banks , building societies would last a week if they did that so how can you get away with it ...oh and it takes ages to get anyone to actually answer your phones so my money at least isn't paying for that .
How do I find out just how much my savings in total are or is it merely this annual bonus rubbish?
