Transferring-In a SIPP is Glacial

Began transfer of my SIPP from Standard Life to II 14 weeks ago. I was already in drawdown, relying on my SIPP as my only income other than state pension. My SIPP is substantial. I naively thought that consequently it would be of a size that would make II want to retain it. I have had to chase at least twice a week so far and I’m STILL no further forward and none the wiser as to when this transfer will complete. I have a huge medical bill impending for a family member and I now have virtually no cash in my bank account, having missed my last 2 drawdown payments because of II’s lethargy. There is absolutely no sense of urgency and no-one seems to care. My latest call was placed at 4:30pm. By the time the call handler had decided to contact colleagues at 4:50pm to seek help and clarification, they’d gone home. Which just about sums up II. Immediately this farce concludes I will draw down sufficient funds to cover me for the year and transfer out to a competent organisation. And to add insult to injury they have begun charging a £15 per month account fee. Seems they can access my money but I can’t.
I had foolishly begun the transfer of my ISA’s to II from Invest Engine. To date I have experienced the same level of doziness from II, being told repeatedly that my IE ISA account number was incorrect, even though I sent in a screen shot from InvestEngine. I will now be cancelling that transfer-in immediately.
Beyond useless.
