Had a non urgent request so opted for call back one week after initial contact which I did not receive. Surprisingly after I called again in addition to sorting the problem they elevated the missed ca... See more

Unhappy client experience
Staff here are experts in their products (one hopes) but they don't communicate well with their non-expert clients.

Investment bond
I have an investment bond and have fruitlessly tried to withdraw money from it for several weeks. I have made application online and have successfully uploaded required documents. At the end of the process a window appears with the message “We cannot process your request right now please try again later”. I have used all means to communicate with them, messaging, chat and phone and not one person was able to resolve the problem. I have managed to get an application form to be posted to me and this will take 10 days to process when they received it. There clearly is a fault in their system that appears unresolvable. An extremely frustrating and very disappointing experience overall. I doubt if a reply to email them will help as I have already contacted the help service to no avail

Refusing access to my money
I am over 11 weeks into an attempt to get my money in my bond back from the Pru. They do not respond in a timely manner, they contradict themselves, their systems fail to do the basics and they invent hurdles. I am at the point of involving solicitors because of the unjustified delays. My account is just a standard bond, nothing special. The last communication was to tell me it will take 7 working to tell me why they hadn't fulfilled their last 7 working day promise.
Ed 20/4 Their latest communication was to say that the documents I provided over two weeks ago, are not visible to them, despite 1) them confirming they could see them weeks ago and 2) them clearly appearing as uploaded on their platform.
