Newbury Building Society Branch Review

Setting up new on-line savings accounts

1 Interest rate is very good. 2 Maximum amount is VERY low. 3 Transfer times are slow. 4 This is advertised as being an on-line account but it isn't really. Snail mail is involved in setting it up. 5 I set up two accounts. One in my name and one in my wife's. I have a middle name but my wife doesn't. On her "Profile" page my wife's name is spelt correctly but on her "Summery" page your computer has inserted my middle initial into her name. I called you about it. It still hasn't been corrected yet. Reviewed on: 27th December 2022

NBS Existing Members account opened online

Was a bit confusing whether I was going to get a physical passbook or not also if I would be asked to go into branch with ID. When finished the application, the page told me to wait until I received a secure message saying the account was opened. However as soon as the application was submitted and I returned to the main account screen, the new account was there along with details about how to make deposits but I still waited for the secure message to appear. Reviewed on: 23rd December 2022

Reply from Newbury Building Society Thank you for taking time to leave feedback - we appreciate it and will look at how we can make the details clearer. Response date: 29th December 2022
