Review of the Newbury Building Society, Savings:

Really friendly, helpful staff and also easy to add funds by internet as well.

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

Unwelcomed

I felt like I was 'an inconvenience' when asked about investing £35k with you as your interest rates looked inviting. I look forward to hearing your comments. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
