Friendly, informative, efficient

My husband made the appointment, but I decided last minute to open the same account, so I tagged along hoping to be sent at the same time, this was no trouble to the lady , she was very efficient being able to answer our questions as it is our first time to be a member of the society. We will certainly be keeping watch on what you have to offer in the near future. Thank you for making the task easy for us. Reviewed on: 26th February 2023

Opening a savings account

We decided to open an account because of the good rate of interest and it couldn't have been easier. We were taken through the procedure by Ken at our local branch and it was all set up in half an hour - no fuss or bother. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Newbury Building Society.
