On the ball

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

Still competitive and good service

5
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

Pleasant Surroundings

Any changes in interest rates company sends mail and emails promptly. Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Absolutely terrible

1
Tried to withdraw funds using electronic trf but their system defaults to my full christian name so my bank did not recognise it. Told to complete withdrawal form for a cheque. 2 weeks later this was rejected because I opened the a/c online and they need specimen signature. Cut a [very] long story short - am still waiting for funds 4 weeks later. Staff all say different contradictory things. Phone line cuts you off. Poorest I have experienced in a very long time. Reviewed on: 18th August 2023

Great rates, increases quickly passed on.

5
Coventry BS have competitive rates and I like that they are a Building Society rather than a bank. They keep me updated about Bank of England rate rises and are quick to increase their own rates. Reviewed on: 11th August 2023

Easy & Competetive

5
Always ahead of the pack for increasing interest credits. Coventry keeps in touch and easy for communicating. Reviewed on: 8th August 2023
