Review of the Newbury Building Society, Savings:

The opening does take up to a weeki from start till receiving authorisation which is far to long

4
The opening was rather long winded and far to much security needed because electronic security was not up to scratch. However the interest rate was good and the web site easy to use .An electronic bank transfer showed in my account within 2 hours. Pity the maximum is only £3000. Overall possibly one of the better investments in the easy access sector. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2019
