Plain and simple

I knew exactly what to expect from the product I chose as the TC document was well laid out. Registering for online access was also very easy to set up and I feel confident I am able to manage my account online securely. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Amazing and Friendly Service

The Service at Newbury Building society is exceptional all the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Top Tier Customer Service

I opened a savings account with Newbury last year and have been impressed not just with the competitive interest rate I have received (encouraging to see in current economic climate), but the outstanding level of customer service demonstrated by the savings team. My application and funds were processed quickly and I always receive a warm, welcoming and informative approach whenever I contact them. I truly feel like a valued member and not just a statistic as I do with larger financial institutions. Reviewed on: 10th January 2023

Nice people, good explanation and appropriate guidance

We visited the Wokingham branch to open three accounts. The interview was well-conducted, thorough, and provided all appropriate guidance and assurance. The pass books arrived next day with all relevant other materials. Great to deal with real people, face-to-face, and very efficient :) Reviewed on: 10th January 2023

Superb customer service

Staff were very welcoming, received good old-fashioned personal customer service. Appointment was thorough, exploring options and was not rushed, the right mix of professional and friendly.
