In branch service review Very helpful counter service. My old accounts could have been earning higher interest - some proactive communication would be useful. Reviewed on: 31st January 2025

Review of the Chorley Building Society, Savings:

Postal & Branch Accessible Saver account

3
The information sheet states this saver account can be withdrawn without notice at any time. It does not clarify what happens to existing savers: [1] will savings be frozen or savers expected to transfer to another (Chorley BS) account, [2] will further deposits be allowed by existing savers, [3] will interest continue to accrued? There is no reference I could find to a Pass Book being issued - it is issued. There was no description of how funds can be withdrawn as cash, by cheque or by electronic transfer, what notice is required & the maximum limits by each method. I got the answers to these questions from one of the branch cashiers. Reviewed on: 16th August 2019

Lucy - Great help and support

Lucy was extremely helpful and patient! We finally got access to my savings account and it was great to talk to a lovely person like Lucy and not a robot! All best wishes. Reviewed on: 19th March 2024

Building Society (mutual) rather than a bank. Prefer smaller organisations to larger ones. Had an account with interest rates that suited us. Reviewed on: 19th March 2024

Chorley Savings Review 2024

Very competitive interest rate offered on its single access savings account. My experience could be improved if there was a banking app available for Android devices rather than the current tedious Chorley online login process! Reviewed on: 19th March 2024
