Ann Walpole is a credit to Darlington Building Society, we have been dealing with Ann for many years, as well as being a very caring person with a lovely attitude she is very knowledgeable in her field of work. Also in her absence all other staff are very capable to take over the reins, all have the knowledge and are able to deal with any issues. We would not hesitate to contact Darlington Building Society if ever we need to. Reviewed on: 15th August 2024

Now just need to find the right property . Reviewed on: 8th August 2024

I attempted to go on-line to my Mortgage a/c but this was blocked after three attempt I contacted your Support department and spoke with Simon McCabe. He carefully and patiently took me through the procedure to un-block my account and for that I was extremely grateful to him for the manner in which he dealt with my problem. Well done to Simon McCabe Reviewed on: 3rd August 2024

More than 10 years a customer, still happy

5
We have been a customer of the Darlington Building Society for 10 years, in which time we have always been treated with respect, with understanding and with a clear desire to achieve the best outcome for us, the customer. Through a myriad of life events and situations, including more complex working arrangements, salary and currency differences, we have always been able to find a solution, together. Our experiences have ensured we never looked for another provider, which would usually be the wrong thing to do, but our faith in the Darlington means we see this as a partnership as much as a business deal.

When I rang to find out about a new fixed rate deal everything was explained clearly. There was no facts and figures to try to get my head around, just a simple and easyily understandable product explanation. Reviewed on: 31st July 2024
