Reviews for Hinckley & Rugby Building Society have trended negatively over the past 90 days

Hinckley and Rugby really shine with their friendly, helpful staff who make opening savings accounts and handling mortgages a breeze. People love the personal touch and clear explanations, even if some wish for more digital options. On the downside, a few found mortgage processing slow and communication patchy, plus the old-school paper-based account setup can feel a bit clunky.

Positive themes

  • Hinckley and Rugby's staff are consistently friendly, helpful and make everything easy.
  • Opening savings accounts at Hinckley and Rugby is quick and staff explain everything clearly.
  • Mortgage service at Hinckley and Rugby is personal and supportive with clear advice.

Negative themes

  • Mortgage processing can be slow with poor communication causing stress for some.
  • Account opening relies heavily on paper forms and cheques which feels outdated.
  • Security concerns raised over phone disclosure of account details during account opening.

Went into Lutterworth branch this am to open an Isa. Staff were lovely and very helpful. The staff member, Natalie, was extremely patient with me because I had a lot of questions. I knew what I wanted but the staff were not pushy or persuasive to get me to buy. Their explanations were very clear and gave me all the information I needed to make my own mind up. I'm going back next week to open next year's isa. Thank you to all the staff. X Read more Read less
