Staff are always friendly and welcoming. I would really find it a benefit to have a cashpoint indoors as this would help with queues for small amounts of cash. Reviewed on: 13th June 2020

Visiting the DBS at the present time could be daunting but the staff make it very easy . Reviewed on: 12th June 2020

Northallerton branch review

Been with DBS for 40yrs and always felt secure and comfortable dealing with employees and the products on offer. Not made to feel like a 'dinosaur' when using more traditional means. Once area of criticism - when counting out money please be more discreet, e.g.holding up the money for all to use. And put into an envelope would be thoughtful. All buildings should offer room/rooms for personal/sensitive money issues. Product well explained. Would like to comment on clear detail, courtest and professionalism to a retired customer. Young lady at Northallerton branch (Kirsty) star rating of 5. Reviewed on: 11th June 2020
