Fantastic experience today. Took my grandson who is almost 3 into the branch to pay his piggy bank money in. I am trying to teach him about savings, so it's fantastic that he can still get a passbook account to watch his pennies grow. The staff were wonderful with him. The low counter for disabled customers was perfect so that he could see what the assistant was doing. He was allowed to 'help' her weigh his money and the staff attitude made the experience so positive that we will be going regularly to do this. Banks could learn a lot about personal service from small building societies Reviewed on: 3rd June 2025
