I opened an account. Sent a deposit. It didn't appear. I panicked. I phoned. Nobody knew why it hadn't appeared, and they didn't seem to be very interested. After two days missing, it showed up. I didn't relish all that stress. I couldn't get it back fast enough. Not only will I never again go anywhere near you, you've put me off Building Societies as keepers of my cash Reviewed on: 3rd October 2023

Opening an accocunt

1
I found the process of opening an online account and logging in unnecessaarily confusing as there was no indication that a 'special word' was not the same as a 'password'. And when I tried to transfer in my first deposit and my bank alerted me that Mansfield's banking details could not be verified and that this might be a scam, I aborted the process and nearly reverted to paying the money to an existing account with another building society.

Reply from Mansfield Building Society Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we’re sorry we haven’t lived up to your expectations this time. We understand your concerns in relation to transferring your first deposit. The majority of large banks are now using a Confirmation of Payee system, to ensure financial security when making payments online. Although the regulatory deadline is not until 2024, we are working to get this up and running at the earliest opportunity, however in the meantime, we would like to confirm that our banking details are confirmed on our website in our Mansfield Online FAQs or as a document to download from our main savings page https://www.mansfieldbs.co.uk/savings/. We would still like the opportunity to understand a little bit more about your comments and to discuss the issues raised directly with you.
