Excellent customer service I spoke to Kerri and she was really helpful! She talked me through how to register for the online banking service so that it was really clear and easy... Read more Reviewed on: 19th September 2026

This lovely lady helped me yesterday go though and helped me out to close my ISA Reviewed on: 22nd October 2024

Antiquated Building Society not in this century (or the last)

When is online not online? When it's Chorley Building Society. Very user unfriendly, slow, unhelpful online platform. The online platform they use is one that is used by most Building Societies but is hopeless and Chorley's use of it is dreadful. Despite having an online account they sent me a passbook. Give them a wide berth. Reviewed on: 19th May 2023

You could inform me of best account for my savings as they are introduced. Reviewed on: 11th May 2023

interest and service

It was easy to open the saving account on line. However, interest was slow to change when the base rate was increased. When needed to close account, can't do with transfer of balance to nominated account must wait for a cheque. Not at all convenient and it's not great if you need money quickly. You can transfer out to nominate account electronically but must leave at least £500 in the account then close it and wait for a cheque. These days, one still have to do this is not exactly great.

Excellent and fast service on phone with Julie and mail with Lucy followed by another quick call and receipt of my new account passbook and information on the very next day. Wonderful friendly people. I may be in Leicestershire and only servicable by phone, but you all made me feel like I am sitting next to you. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2023

I like the "traditional Building Society" approach, i.e. offers savers reasonable interest rates (and I assume mortgage holders the same) without spending money on extra frills, dividends or other services. Reviewed on: 24th April 2023
