Feel sorry for the older folks cancelling by phone. I found it easy to take money out online.
Obvious it would cause mass withdrawals by taking rates to from 1% to 0.1%. Hair Kari by the management of NS&I.

Any time you call a bank, and their recorded message is "Our customer service staff will not accept abusive or threatening behavior on the phone call" , you know something has gone badly wrong.

Agree it was obvious, and therefore must have been so to management also, in which case it was planned. Doesn't excuse poor customer service though. Not sure what you mean by Hair Kari (sic) in that context.

Re: NS&I apologises for customer service
Entirely understandable given the circumstances.
* Drop in interest rates.
* Pandemic giving rise to changes in working arrangements.
* Staff off sick, isolating or caring for others.
* Increase in workload.
Result = chaos or slower response depending on how you look at it.
