Savers frozen out as Icesave website collapses Savers wishing to withdraw money from the Icelandic bank have struggled to access their cash

Savers seeking to withdraw money from Icesave, an arm of Landsbanki, the Icelandic bank, today found they could not operate their accounts online.

A message on the Icesave website said: “We have been experiencing intermittent faults with our website over the last 12 hours. These were intermittent faults randomly affecting different groups of customers at random intervals. Our IT team has now resolved the issue.”

But Times readers said this morning that the website was allowing them to look at their accounts but not to take money out.

Webmaster's Commentary: 

"IT" issues. Right. We heard that one with Citibank, too!
