Coventry Building Society Savings reviews (108)

Good overall

4
Good interest rate and good security Reviewed on: 31st January 2018

A trustworthy provider of savings accounts

5
The Coventry Building Society is the only savings account provider I have found that consistently pays good rates of interest, has never tried to move my money into low interest accounts and has never offered me poorer rates than new investors. If only all financial institutions showed such loyalty to long term customers. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2017

Honest and respectable

5
An honest and respectable company that treats it's customers fairly. Reviewed on: 15th November 2017

Good service and interest rate

5
Very easy to set up and transfer in old cash ISA. Great customer service when contacting the bank and good interest rate. Reviewed on: 13th November 2017

No-brainer!

5
I've had accounts with the Coventry for many years and have never seen a reason to leave. Their interest rates are generally a little above that of their competitors (vital in these times of such pitiful returns) and they reward loyalty by keeping rates on existing accounts a little ahead of their newer equivalents. Also the Coventry's website is a doddle, even for a technophobe like me! Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Good service

4
I found it easy to set up my account, but it was difficult to initially access the online banking service. Interest rates are reasonably competitive, and the customer service has been good when I've needed to contact them. Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Redisign /simplify online/telephone/security

1
The most obstructive and cumbersome security questions and codes that i have ever experienced. They involve swapping postal communications just to set up and now a new additional code grid has been sent to me. I have given up trying to communicate with them. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2017

Easy Access ISA

5
Phoned up to open easy access Isa and they told me over the phone that the interest rate was going up the following day which was a lovely surprise and quite unusual Reviewed on: 30th March 2017

Great face to face service plus online services that actually work.

5
I have had several complicated transactions to negotiate with The Coventry over the past year and they could not have been more helpful. They followed the death of my father and whilst other companies seemed to make the process even more traumatic , The Coventry went out of their way to make it as pain free and simple as possible . I really cannot fault their customer service Reviewed on: 11th February 2017

Good interest rates offered, strong security set up for internet account

4
Good interest rates, good online security - lots of steps for logging in Reviewed on: 24th December 2016
