We believe that making it easy for members to self-serve will become increasingly important over the coming years. If it is easier to make a change online than in writing or over the phone, then that is what people will do.
The app has been designed with this in mind. The phone app offers the sort of functionality people expect from a modern financial product. We understand that not everyone will want to use their phone to engage, which is why we offer the full range of alternatives rather than making members engage with us in a particular manner.
