Brilliant DBS support throughout stages of life

I have had a few different accounts over the years, from accounts entrusted to my parents that I have then had DBS’ support to access, to savings accounts and ISAs of my own once I was earning and saving. Every time, with every request I had for DBS, the staff were able to help me choose what product was best for me and always made time to personalise the service. Reviewed on: 1st March 2026

I have had my building society account since I was born, my parents opened up an account and they have been amazing throughout to present times. They regularly send emails with updates and their advice on which account is best for your goals Reviewed on: 28th February 2026
