Nice and quick. Polite and helpful staff. Answered all of the questions I needed to know. The BS could do with updating so they don’t need a savings book which other banks have out one with now. Reviewed on: 31st October 2019

The Yarm branch is open on Saturdays allowing me to call in and deal with the staff as I work away during the week. Reviewed on: 8th August 2024

I was very upset to received a letter stating that the Yarm branch will be closing on Saturdays. There was no consultation with members. As someone who works full time this is really difficult for me and am considering closing all my accounts and moving to a building society that does open on a Saturday. Reviewed on: 8th August 2024
