I received a telephone call yesterday for a request regarding a charity donation nomination Found this quite surprising but if you do need an answer anything to do with young people (boys and girls ) especially if they play football would be good. If you do not have that any organisation that's close will be OK. You can choose. Regards Charles Forrester Reviewed on: 12th December 2025
Reply from Harpenden Building Society Dear Mr Forrester, Thank you for your kind note. For context, we encourage customers to provide feedback (both positive and negative) to help us continue delivering outstanding customer service and accounts that meet our customers’ needs while offering fair value. To encourage this, customers who are happy to leave their details are entered into a prize draw to choose one of our selected charities for a £100 donation. Following your note, we have made a donation to a youth-based charity. Once again, may I thank you for your feedback (both this time and previously). If I can be of any further assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected]. Kind regards, Jon Sweeting Commercial Manager Response date: 18th December 2025
