Staff in branch are really helpful. Good to deal with humans, too many online only accounts. No choice and I am sick of good building societies neglecting their loyal customers. Reviewed on: 27th June 2025

I had an issue with cheques, as I had sent off but with an impending bank switch. Even though my account with the BS had not yet been actioned, they went out of their way to retrieve my cheque to ensure it didn't bounce! Excellent customer service and above and beyond Reviewed on: 12th June 2025
