Had an account with Harpenden Building Society from when I first moved there back in the 1990's. On moving away 15 years ago didn't know what to expect of the service level, but have been incredibly pleased. They remain attentive, efficient and fast! Thank you so much for many years of outstaning service. Reviewed on: 14th August 2023
