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  • Account opening relies heavily on paper forms and cheques which feels outdated.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.

Excellent customer services from Hinckley & Rugby. Rang previously and they were very responsive, polite and addressed by issue. Had a second follow up query that I emailed them about and they rang me back literally within 2 mins. Jennifer understood the issue and it was resolved quickly. She also explained what I needed to do and what documentation they wanted from me. Can really praise them enough to be honest! Thank you. Read more Read less
