Great service, great rates - the Small but perfectly formed Newbury Building Society

5
I have been a happy customer of Newbury Building Society for over 15 years. I previously held my mortgage with a large multinational supplier but haven't looked back since switching to the Newbury Building Society. They offer great customer service and have a good product range. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Great Customer Service

Always very helpful. It’s almost like a family business rather than a bank where no one wants to listen. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Pleasant, helpful and considerate service

5
Our mortgage was due for renewal, we visited Newbury Building Society and discussed our options with a mortgage adviser. Within 20 minutes we had signed up for a new 3 year deal at a preferential reduced rate. What more could we ask for? Fabulous. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Very helpful

5
Difficult situation re mortgaging my truesteel framed home in which I have lived for more than 20 years. Very helpful face to face contact in which the mortgage advisor was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and very reassuring. Just a brilliant local service in an era of faceless online form filling. Loved it. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Excellent service provider

A fair, sensible and efficient loan provider - fit for purpose. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018
