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

A good account for small savers

Opening an account online was a quick and easy experience. The interest rate is excellent and the added bonus of a monthly prize draw mad it even more attractive. The limit on monthly deposits is not very high but otherwise the account is very flexible. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

Competitive rates

They keep you informed about rate changes and are as quick to raise them as they are drop them when the base rate changes. They have competitive interest rates and I like being a member of a building society rather than a customer of a bank. Reviewed on: 29th August 2024

Coventry building society used a forged mortgage.

Coventry building society used a forged mortgage to seize an oaps home. The court case caused him to stop eating and taking his medications. He died due to the shock. Coventry building society does it really take 10 years to show him the unsigned mortgage he never signed. Shame on you. Reviewed on: 19th July 2024
