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

Successful opening

Booked appointment a few days earlier, completed application, paid initial deposit, left to continue my day. Passbook arrived a few days later with account number, etc. Set up online access and all done! Quick with no hassles. Reviewed on: 17th January 2023
