Standard Life are (we find) pretty switched on, have intelligent Scottish people at the end of the ‘phone, efficient online stuff, pretty good funds. That’s one end of things. Here’s the other. In just one day, we had eight separate letters from them; three of which were about the same client. If I were the BBC and had to be balanced (or pretend to be, if you’re a Daily Mail reader, while actually being a hotbed of leftie-commies), I could take similar photos of post from most of the big providers. When the letters arrive, we scan and shred them. So why can’t they just send us emails? My guess is, it’s a leftie-commie union conspiracy to keep Royal Mail in business. What do you think?
