I have recently opened a Junior ISA for my child, and it was really funny because they said there would be no app or website to control or just check the the account. You have to, literally either walk to your nearest branch or phone them up! I laughted and asked them if they thought it was 1986. It's very old fashioned! It's a way of putting it. I have now read some reviews of how people have been treated unfairly and it's really made me think. Reviewed on: 27th May 2025

Reliable

It helps having a local branch to sort out the wrinkles. On line big recent improvements and responsive to interest rates going up and informing customers. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Great rates and options

Great rates and options of savings. Easy to set up online and staff also very friendly and helpful. Reviewed on: 28th February 2023

Simple products with good interest rates

5
For both the isa and saving accounts, CBS have promptly raised interest rates to reflect changes to base rate. Some of the best rates out there, especially on the limited access accounts that still allow for 6 withdrawals a year within penalty. Reviewed on: 28th February 2023

Been with CBS for 40 years. As smart money goes, I have always felt safe and secure with them. Online or in ranch, helpful to a person. Reviewed on: 9th February 2023

Competitive savings rates and members not shareholders profit.

5
I've moved nearly all my savings to Coventry and they continue to offer competitive interest rates and I would prefer to bse a building society member than make money for a bank. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

Always first to look to increase savings rates
