Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Savings reviews (2000)

Fantastic Personal Pragmatic Service from a Proper Building Society

The calls are picked up swiftly and all of the team provide every assistance within an impossible and highly frustrating regulatory framework. The proactivity in terms of calls from them to navigate through the forms and identity verification in the context of the timeframes in a dynamic interest rate environment is exceptional. We sacrificed a small amount of interest in the last few savings decisions because the team at H&R make life so much easier and instill such confidence. Reviewed on: 24th November 2023

Competitive rates, excellent customer service

Welcome phone call to acknowledge receipt of application for a savings account. My only comment is that the Society asks for hardcopy applications rather than the online application process offered by many competitors, and issue of a passbook is definitely a traditional - perhaps outdated - business model, though no doubt welcome to customers that are less digitally confident Reviewed on: 23rd November 2023

Please be assured we are looking to provide more online services for our savers in the near future, so we are able to cater more fully to all of our valued members.

Great customer service and values

Really great service from Mandy from the moment my call was answered to the point, a few hours later, where I had completed my application for a new savings Bond. Nothing was too much trouble and timescales were flexed to accommodate me. Very much appreciated, and great to see that face-to-face customer service is still valued and prized at HRBS. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2023

Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society It was heartening to hear how much you appreciated the personal service you received from Mandy at our branch in South Wigston. We definitely feel having face-to-face access to our teams is of value and we plan to keep this maintained for our members. Thank you for taking the time to pass on your comments, which we will share with Mandy and her team.

RosT

I would highly recommend the Hinkley and Rugby Building Society. I recently opened a saving account and the process was quick, easy and efficient ( and a great rate ) . From start to finish it took less than 48 hours to make the application, deposit the money and have all the necessary checks completed. I made the application by mail and received a phone call from customer service the next morning advising me that my application had been received and would be processed that day. Great service.

It’s great to hear we met your requirements efficiently and you were happy with the rate we were offering, and, of course, that you decided to open an account with the Society. We will enjoy passing your comments on to the team in question.

Kids Saver Accounts

I had telephoned the Hinckley branch with questions regarding the kids saver accounts & was impressed with the way my questions were dealt with. Because of this I visited the branch that morning to open four accounts for my grandchildren. Jamie was very helpful & courteous, it wasn’t a problem to open all four accounts that day & I didn’t get rushed. I was also given a free book for each grandchild which is a lovely story to encourage saving, the oldest grandchildren have loved reading the book already. The Hinckley & Rugby weren’t my first choice of building society/bank but because they were more helpful & welcoming than my original choice they were the ones who I decided to invest with. Thank you. Reviewed on: 14th November 2023

Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society We are very happy to hear you chose the Society to look after your grandchildren’s savings. It’s heartening to hear you were impressed by the service you received over the phone and also by Jamie when you visited our branch. This type of feedback is a joy to hear, and we will happily share this with the team involved. We’re also delighted to hear your grandchildren are enjoying their copy of How Roommates Became Savers – this book was written and illustrated by one of our employees so it’s very special to us.
