Reviews for Chorley Building Society have trended positively over the past 90 days

Chorley Building Society shines with its friendly, knowledgeable staff who make savings and mortgage dealings feel personal and straightforward. The local branches and face-to-face service are a big hit, especially for those who prefer chatting to a real person rather than online. Competitive interest rates and clear communication add to the positive experience. On the downside, some find the online platform clunky or difficult to use, and a few wish for quicker updates on interest rate changes or more competitive fixed-term savings options. A handful also mentioned occasional phone response issues, but these are rare compared to the overall great service.

Positive themes

  • Mortgage service at Chorley Building Society is friendly and makes the process easy to understand.

Negative themes

  • Some find Chorley Building Society's online platform difficult and frustrating to use.
  • A few customers wished for faster updates on interest rate changes after BoE moves.
  • Rarely the phone service can be slow or calls unanswered at Chorley Building Society.
