The best on the high street

Always a warm welcome in branch and helpful staff. Savings accounts have solid rates comparable to other high street banks and building societies. Great provision for young savers. Excellent, hugely varied community outreach and support work to give back locally throughout the region. Reviewed on: 29th March 2026

Earn more with The Darlington

While larger building societies are cutting their rates as soon as a BOE Base rate cut has been announced, Darlington has given their Savers an opportunity to consistently earn a better rate from their portfolio and open to all. Well done Darlington, you put the others to shame. Reviewed on: 28th March 2026
