Nice, friendly staff. Always very helpful. How can you improve on excellence?. Reviewed on: 20th September 2024
Reply from Harpenden Building Society A lovely to review, and your last comment mirrors similar words I use in my annual review with my line manager! Joking aside, we are delighted you are pleased with the service you have received. If we can't improve on excellence, then we will just have to try our best to maintain it! Thanks once again for your feedback. Jon Sweeting Commercial Manager Response date: 28th October 2024

Local office. Deal with a person who listens and is informative. Better rates on savings in branch needed. Reviewed on: 27th July 2024
Reply from Harpenden Building Society Thanks you for your feedback, and I'm sorry to understand you are unhappy with the pricing of our products- specifically branch based accounts. The majority of our products are E-enabled. This means that a customer can both apply and manage their accounts through our online system or use our branch network. As such, there is no price differentiation on these products. We do however have some Online Only products, and these are priced to represent the limited access and distribution of this product and for customers who are happy to apply and manage their accounts through our online platform only. We have and are continuing to make significant changes across the savings range, and as a result the majority of our savers are getting a higher than average savings rate. I appreciate your feedback, and if you wish to discuss further my email address is [email protected] Kind regards, Jon Sweeting Response date: 2nd August 2024

Friendly service, explained everything. Great bank! Absolutely nothing to complain about with the staff, however I wish the opening times/days were better. Reviewed on: 17th July 2024
Reply from Harpenden Building Society Thank you for your feedback. We regularly review our opening hours to ensure that the needs of our customers are met against the commercial viability of opening the branches and head office for longer. If you would like to email me at [email protected] with further details on your requirements we will certainly consider this. Jon Sweeting Commercial Manager Response date: 2nd August 2024
