Prompt service.

I have two savings accounts with Darlington Building Society. Earlier this week I tried to make an online withdrawal from one of these but was only given the option of withdrawing from the other account. I sent a secure message about the problem and received a response within the hour. The problem was rectified, I was able to proceed with the withdrawal online and the funds had been transferred to my bank account by the end of the day. Reviewed on: 28th February 2026
