Excellent customer experience

Contacted Interactive Investor due to an issue with my trading account. I spoke with Euan who sorted it out promptly and efficiently. Moreover, I was very pleased by the kind treatment I received. It was an overall excellent customer experience.

I had problems logging on yet again…

I had problems logging on yet again after EQi was taken over by Interactive Investor. I spoke to Amy H. She was brilliant and guided me through the process effortlessly and efficiently. I wish everyone I speak to at various companies could be just as good.

After a less than helpful phone call to…

After a less than helpful phone call to an II customer service rep a couple of days ago, I decided to try again today. I spoke to Matty, who was extremely helpful and polite, managing to sort out the problem without going through the tedious process that the first contact was insisting on. Thanks very much!

Fantastic service from Joao

Fantastic service from Joao! He could not have been more polite, helpful and patient. He wouldn't finish the call until he had succeeded in getting me set up on my account (even though it meant waiting for me each time to go outside with my mobile phone 4 or 5 times to get a signal in order to receive the security codes etc). Excellent customer service - many thanks Joao!

EQi transfer.

Personally I feel EQi sold themselves out to a far inferior competitor. Things I would like to do but cannot with ii:
1. Change my DD date. ii tell you where you can do that on their website but when you go there, that facility does not exist
2. Easily make payments by bank transfer. Their preference is for you to do this by debit card. I would prefer not to store this info. online
3. When I reluctantly uploaded my bank card details the payment failed, so I went to use another bank card instead only to be told you can only change bank card details once every 30 days.
That means I will not be able to make my regular investment this month because the DD date does not tally with ii's regular investment date and I can't top up using a(nother) bank card. Thanks ii.
Feel like I've been sold a pig in a poke.

Hopefully by buying EQi you'll invest a bit more in your user interface. Unattractive interface not at all user friendly. I know this is my first month, so I'm giving you a chance. But if things don't revert to the level of expectation I had with EQi I shall be taking my business elsewhere before the year is out.

I almost forgot. I sent a secure message 3 days ago. Still awaiting a response.

In summary, and to be fair, viewing things on the ii website is fine, but wanting to do things is another thing entirely.

I contacted II this morning as I was having difficulty transferring in from a US business and the information they were requesting from me. Gursh was fantastic, she took the details of the US firm's request, found all the information and called me back to enable me to complete the form, she also followed up with the information in a secured message. Reall good service! Thank you!
