I met staff of Newbury Building Society at Abingdon Air Show and liked the sound of the account which I subsequently opened in branch. The service I received in branch was very good and the whole process was very smooth. Since then I have used internet access which again is very user-friendly (I'm not computer-savvy, so need simple systems!). Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Why are piggy banks blue? Maybe a happy yellow or multi colour. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
Reply from Newbury Building Society Thank you for your feedback - we chose blue as it is our brand colour but we will be looking to review this when we change the stock of the piggy banks. Response date: 11th April 2023
