Review of the Leek Building Society, Financial Planning:

Access to an IFA - this is good

I wasn't aware they had a service where you could talk to an IFA about pensions. Not everyone offers such as service. Reviewed on: 25th January 2024

Buying a ISA

No problems from start to finish, the staff are very friendly but professional at all times. The assistant who handled my case did so proficiently& I was able to understand everything she told me & was able to proceed with the transaction with the knowledge that I was in safe hands. I was made to feel valued as a customer which is important to me! Reviewed on: 13th January 2025

Reply from Leek Building Society Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and we’re sorry to hear that you couldn’t find the information that you wanted. When it comes to financial planning the Society acts as an introducer to Wren Sterling, a firm of independent financial advisers. We’re not in a position to advise on or arrange pensions ourselves – which is why you were unable to locate a brochure specifically about pensions during your visit to the branch. If you’d like to speak with a Wren Sterling adviser about your pension arrangements then please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we’ll be happy to arrange an appointment for you. You can do this by either asking in branch or by calling us on 0800 093 0002 and we look forward to speaking with you. Dave @ Leek BS Response date: 1st August 2024
