Matured Junior ISA

    My son turned 18 and wants to transfer his Tescos Bank Junior ISA to another provider. He did not receive an end of term statement for his account. His money is no longer visible and has been put into a holding account which is not visible. He has done everything asked of him! He has supplied ID. Been told a security number will be sent to him so he can access his money - after chasing Tescos Bank ... on 2 occasions this has not happened. He has done on-line complaint and had no acknolwedgement or response. They are preventing him from accessing his money which I assume is no longer earning interest. Does anyone have any suggestions about legal timescales or next steps. My son is worried and feeling frustrated at not being able to access his money for University. It is an appalling service!
