Hi Jayden
Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I'm sorry you had trouble using the Yoti app to make a withdrawal and for any inconvenience this caused. We've raised your feedback with our Customer Experience Team to be reviewed.
We offer cheque withdrawals as an alternative to using Yoti, and I'm glad this option worked for you. Cheques usually arrive within 7-10 working days, and I trust you'll receive your funds shortly.
If there's anything we can do to help, please email your details to customer.relations@onefamily.com.
Thanks,
Shauna

Didn't have much interaction as it was the Child Trust Fund but I was disappointed that the final total was much less than on screen and the charges were not up front and clear at the time of cashing out.

Hi Leigh
Thanks for your review and sharing your experience with us.
I can confirm there are no withdrawal charges for our Child Trust Fund (CTF) products. If the CTF was invested in stocks and shares it's possible for the value to fluctuate after the withdrawal instruction is given as we sell the units the next working day.
We try our best to make this clear in the withdrawal journey, but I'm sorry you weren't aware of this and for the disappointment caused.
If you'd like to discuss this further, please email the account details to customer.relations@onefamily.com.
Many thanks,

Hassle and data collecting
Hassle and data collecting. They collect data from you and use it to make money out for you. Takes ages to process the funds into ur account. You have to accept the privacy claims to get the money meaning without ur data u can’t get anything

Very Good 😊
My son's trust fund matured, and the procedure for cash withdrawal was uncomplicated and direct. He tried the Yoti option but was timed out, so he chose to receive a cheque, which arrived within the specified timeframe. This resulted in a positive outcome, therefore I would highly recommend one family. I observed that several other reviews referenced Yoti, so it might be beneficial to explore the reasons behind this issue, access to which would make the process even more positive.
We also liked there was no hard sell in getting you to reinvest the funds the choice is your own with no influence.

Ordered my check nearly 3 weeks ago after being told 10 days. Was told to ring back a certain day which I did to be told now it could be re issued. Wait times are ridiculous to get a phone call and the waiting times for the check are even worse

Hi Kamran
Thanks for sharing your experience with us and I'm sorry your cheque didn't arrive.
We send post via Royal Mail in good faith but have no control over correspondence once it's left us.
I'm also sorry you had trouble reaching us by phone. We're currently training more staff to deal with the increased number of calls.
Please email your account details to customer.relations@onefamily.com so we can get this resolved for you.
Thanks,

it was difficult to try to get the money transferred into my bank account because you wanted us to use a yoti identification app and wouldn’t let me do it over the phone so i opted for a cheque instead

Hi Lyla
I’m sorry you’ve had trouble using the Yoti app to make a withdrawal and for any inconvenience this caused. As Child Trust Funds (CTFs) were set up by HM Revenue & Customs and are accessed at 18, we have to carefully balance accessibility with protection of the funds and making sure CTFs can only be withdrawn by the policy holder.
I realise Yoti didn’t work for you in this instance and I’m sorry. Please be assured, our intention isn’t to make accessing the funds difficult. Our top priority is safeguarding your funds so they can only be withdrawn by you.
If you’d like to discuss your account further, please email us at customer.relations@onefamily.com.
Thanks,

Rip-off management fees
Charge absolutely shocking 1.5% management fee for a tracker product where they simply buy the shares in an index and no fund management expertise is required. Management fees for this type of product should be around a tenth of this level.

Hi David
Thank you for your review.
Our investment products include a charge for managing the Fund you chose to invest in. For our Junior ISA and Investment Child Trust Fund funds this is currently 1.5%. This is to cover the yearly cost of managing the investments.
I’m sorry you’re disappointed with the charge. If you’d like to discuss this further, please email your account details to customer.relations@onefamily.com so we can provide details about the specific fund you’re invested in.
Thanks,
