Everything is hunky-dory. Interest on savings needs to improve though. Reviewed on: 19th January 2024
Reply from Harpenden Building Society Thank you for your feedback and I'm delighted to understand that everything is hunky-dory (one of my go-to expressions too!). I did want to address your point with regards to interest rates. We have and are continuing to make significant changes across the savings range, and as a result 99% of our savers are getting a higher than average rate. Please sign up to our newsletter via our website where we can keep you up-to-date on new products and information on how to apply. In the meantime, if you have any further queries then please do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected] Kind regards, Jon Sweeting Commercial Manager Response date: 5th February 2024

I like that you have a branch on the high street in Radlett and I can go in and see someone face-to-face. The account is run by elderly people who cannot all use the internet. This ensures the security of the account. Good customer service with a friendly face is very important. Please do not close the Radlett branch. Reviewed on: 19th January 2024
Reply from Harpenden Building Society This is great to read, and i'll make sure this is passed to the Radlett branch team. Kind regards, Jon Sweeting Commercial Manager Response date: 5th February 2024
