Real people

The advisers are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. You’re always dealing with real people, both in person and over the phone, and that makes a huge difference, especially when so many customer service roles are being replaced by bots. They’re always happy to guide you and recommend the most suitable products so you can get the best possible value and make the most of your interest. Reviewed on: 17th January 2026

Amazing Service from a fantastic Building Society

5
Always have amazing service from the branches and love having the passbooks separate from the modern online banks. Mobile app once registered is simple and easy to use. The Newbury also offer great regular savings reviews face to face with a human being rather than online robots. Reviewed on: 16th January 2026
