Monmouthshire Building Society shines with its friendly, helpful staff and the comfort of local branches where you can get face-to-face advice. People really appreciate the personal touch and the ease of dealing with knowledgeable teams in Savings and Mortgages. However, the app and online services frustrate many, with slow transactions and tricky login issues, while some mortgage experiences have been less than smooth.

We have renewed our mortgage 3 times with Anita Morgan as the adviser and she has been fantastic every time. Very pleasant an amenable as well as highly efficient and knowledgeable and provided bespoke tailored advice to our circumstances. Cannot fault her and she is a credit to the building society. Looking forward to touching base with her again in 2 years time and continuing the relationship with Monmouthshire which I feel as a 'smaller' lender is more interested in us as individuals rather than following a box ticking exercise.
