I like that there is a local branch in Tring with helpful staff. An app similar to the Nationwide Building Society that is easy to use would be good. Reviewed on: 19th June 2024

Reply from Harpenden Building Society Thank you for your feedback, and i agree with your sentiments regarding an App. I know it's easy to promise 'Jam tomorrow' but this is on our road map for future development.
