Review of the Chorley Building Society, Savings:

Signed up for online

4
Decided to sign up to online with the Chorley because of lock down. It was very straight forward and easy to understand considering doing online banking is new to me. I was sent an ID number through the post and went into my Chorley accounts but I couldn’t see a log out notice which the letter accompanying my ID number said to do but it would log me out after 5 minutes automatically if I wasn’t using the inline service. I found this to be a long time to wait and would have thought probably a couple of minutes would have been enough wait. I rang the next day and spoke to a lovely lady Called Joyce Haywood who was working from home because of the Covid-19 pandemic situation, she was very helpful and asked if there was a menu option which there was so I clicked on it and low and behold was the option to log off. So I feel much happier now that I can log straight out. Thanks for your help Joyce. Reviewed on: 5th June 2020

Savings and information

5
I was left some money in a will and initially had it in my bank but money needs to work for you. I went to several building societies for information, however the decision was easy once I visited CBS. The staff took their time and went through my options and when appropriate I’ve opened fixed term accounts as well. Nothing appears to be an issue especially when you are in a vulnerable state of bereavement Reviewed on: 27th February 2023

Whenever I go in to the branch office to update my account books I am always met with a smile and given excellent advice. This has included advising me to change my then savings account to one which would provide me with better interest. I have always felt that my custom was valued and I have stayed with the Chorley and District for 41 years because of this personal service. Reviewed on: 27th February 2023
