Review of the Coventry Building Society, Savings:

Not The Leading, But The Best For Us

I opened a regular savings account with Cov BS a year ago. This was quick and easy to request online. Forms arrived soon after in the post, which required signatures. I returned these in a pre-paid envelope, and my account was opened in just over a week. Internet banking/log in is scure, and I receive regular emails inviting me to view our statement online. I have telephoned once, and visited in-branch once for unrelated reasons - the customer service I received in both instances was quick, professional and friendly. Email communication is regular, clear, and concise. I also regularly participate in a Coventry BS panel along with other account holders and also Cov BS staff members to discuss all aspects of banking with Cov BS, to participate in polls, and to answer questions (sometimes with the chance of winning a reward). Since opening my regular savings account the interest rate has risen several times in line with the base rate, and this is always acted upon promptly. I have since opened an easy access account. I like the set up of the society and its internet banking, which is easy to navigate, and easy to set up payments to. I feel my money is safe - there are no shareholders to satisfy! On that basis, I have no reason to consider changing to another bank or building society. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Coventry BS is good.

Coventry BS is good. Savings rates are high. Customer service is good but done over the phone. The online management of products is easy. Reviewed on: 25th January 2024

On the ball

Always up to speed with market changes Reviewed on: 14th October 2023

Still competitive and good service

I'm still using CBS for savings because they are proactive about increasing interest rates, they keep me informed, their internet banking site works well and they are still competitive. Reviewed on: 14th October 2023
