Come on, 4 different high street banks said even though your not supposed to close your account before hand they would have all said yes, propbably with a fee or a 60/90 day. What difference does my piddely savings make to a huge company like Icesave. When I first called customer services of Icesave they told me it would not be a problem if I wrote stateing my reason. And I think I am like a lot of small savers who all think in an emergency you WOULD be able to retreive your money before the due date. A bit of human kindness would not have gone a miss.

But thanks for the advice about my bank, I can go chat with them and they may help out with a bridging loan.

I still think Icesave is Mean.!!
