I am yet to input a full case yet however Pamela & Andrea, have been very helpful with 3 "problem" cases and have talked me through every step. They follow up quickly with emails and phone calls and happy to discuss in detail. They want to work with you and make the cases work where they can. Common sense approach and not just a computer says no! Read more Read less

I was a bit annoyed I've got to take money out and Cath recommended a new on-line product for me which is perfect for my needs. So apart from sorting what looked like a big problem for me, which Cath sorted quickly, she gave added-value in her help on a new product. Read more Read less

I can only speak about Key House which, being very local, I have always found service Chorley Building Society to be most helpful particularly as I am able to receive personal face-to-face advice with a 'human being' rather than a telephonic 'robot' which many banks or financial organisations seem to offer as the preferred contact point these days. If a desk clerk is unable to answer a particular query, a more senior member of staff can soon be summoned to resolve the problem without having wait for hours or days being shuffled from one department to another requiring me to repeat the query over and over.

    Old school!

    I wanted to open an ISA in a branch, not online, ( because I am quite old school.) The staff were very friendly and helpful.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Devon Park at Chorley Building Society for arranging my new mortgage. From start to finish, Devon was outstanding in every way. She explained every stage of the process clearly and thoroughly, ensuring that I fully understood everything involved. I particularly appreciated how she regularly checked in with me to see if I had any questions or needed further clarification. Devon’s telephone manner was impeccable—professional, friendly, patient, and reassuring throughout. She made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and easy to manage. I am extremely grateful for the excellent service I received and would not hesitate to recommend Devon Park and Chorley Building Society to anyone looking for mortgage advice.

    Our experience when dealing with Chorley Building Society has been very positive. The ability to be able to speak to an underwriter, made the application process very straight forward.
