Octopus money exceeded my expectations

I was automatically transferred over to Octopus money from Virgin money, the experience was smooth and I was well communicated with.
I have had a great experience with Octopus money, I frequently use their app and occasionally use their website as it offers more than their app.
I have apoken with their customer service centre several times and received an excellent service and cannot fault them.

I had a Virgin Money pension that moved to Octopus Money Direct, and the service has been as good, if not better, than I received with Virgin Money. I get a sense that they are trying hard to deliver a sound service.

Octopus

So I have just been in touch with your call team.

The operator was totally unengaged... said the right things but really needs some extra training in telephone manner.... prolonged silences and stating the facts, resulting in a prompt cut off after the end of the call with no option of leaving feedback as initially mentioned. This is not really a good first impression of Octopus. The website is unclear, it should be totally user friendly... its pretty terrible.... I for one will be reconsidering my pension provider after years of excellent service from Virgin.

Octopus Money Direct - AVOID!.

Thinking about letting this rag bag of economic illiterates look after your pension? Don't. You would, and I mean it quite literally, be better off putting your money under the mattress. My pension pot has dropped over 5% in the last 2 months and is now worth less than when this shower took it over last Dec.If it was possible to award them no stars I would. Avoid them like the plague! You have been warned.

Awful drama when making a withdrawal

Awful drama when making a withdrawal. initiated on 31st March and STILL the money has not been moved. OMD claimed they could not verify the account the money was being transferred to. A joint account with our names on which had previously been used for transfers. They insisted I needed to supply a copy statement, rejected a screenshot I sent and insisted on a PDF. Despite the document being supplied a week ago, I am STILL WAITING. Will be looking for alternatives in the near future!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear how frustrating this has been for you. For any withdrawal to be completed, we must have a fully verified bank account on file to ensure funds are transferred securely. In this case, additional documentation is needed to verify the destination account, which is why we requested a copy statement in PDF format.

We have contacted the account holder directly by phone, and the matter is being actively progressed. This will be resolved as soon as possible.

If you require any further assistance in the meantime or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly on 03455 28 88 88 or send us a secure message and we’ll be happy to help.

They haven't been investing the tax relief on pension contributions.
Pretty basic stuff. Slow to remedy it too.

Excellent online facilities

Excellent online facilities - we switched from Virgin Money, and there had been issues setting up a new direct debit from a third party - it was so easy on the Octopus site -easy to set up an account, everything was done by messaging and quick document upload; all resolved quickly- so far very impressed!

Old Virgin Money pension customer.

Old Virgin Money pension customer.
I tried to put some funds into my pension pot online by using my debit card. Not possible. Then I tried to use my other debit card. Also not possible. I informed them about problem, still not possible then Octopus pension told me to ring them instead. So I rang yesterday and a funny guy called Rubin picked up the phone. He behaved like I was doing him a favour. He even told me I was an online customer and I should manage my transactions online. I told him I would have if it had worked. This Rubin man kept making noises on the phone and humming, very irritating so I hang up. He called me back and I said I would ring later. I rang and lucky me the same humming Rubin guy again. I wanted to leave feedback at the end but he ended a the phonecall, so I didn't get the chance. It would be nice if staff were more professional.

My Virgin pension account was supposed…

My Virgin pension account was supposed to be transfered over to Octopus Money Direct. I go through the login, password and then push the button to get a verification code, and wait, and wait, but no code comes. The phone number is correct. On the 7th call the operator tells me the email is the problem. Why? your sending a number to a phone!! Every other bank and financial institution seems to get this right just Octopus seems to be unable to. How good are they going to be managing money if they can't get this simple thing right??

I never signed up with Octopus Money…

I never signed up with Octopus Money but they bought my junior SIPP provider. I tried to login to the app (which I used to do biometrically with my old provider), didn't work, wouldn't recognize the password, so I had to go to their site get a new password, but to login I needed to use the app, so then had to go to Google password manager to copy paste the password into the app, then it says I have to enter a code sent to my mobile, so I have to enter that. all just to access an app that used to take one touch without fail. If this app ever logs me out again I will transfer my SIPPs out straightaway.
