Hello, thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear your thoughts. As we offer long-term savings plans, the amount paid into the plan is fixed when they are opened and cannot be changed throughout the plan’s duration. As the plans are opened in a child’s name, they are viewed as a gift to the child, so unfortunately we are unable to pay the plan out to anyone except the child. If you can please contact our Member Services team they will be happy to help with resolving your enquiry. Our contact details are 0800 988 2418 or membersalesandservice@forestersfriendlysociety.co.uk. Kind regards Foresters

“I have been with the Foresters for many years and have been given support from the Society when I needed it. The investments that I have taken out over the years have yielded very good returns. The latest bonds we have taken out came with fantastic gift cards for Marks and Spencers, which have come in very handy for Christmas gifts”
