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

Opened up a new savings account

Existing member, and opened up a new savings account online. Paid money into it, and then found the money was returned. I followed up by phone and found out that my passport ID was required. Strange request after opening my new account, and that too for an existing account holder. Reviewed on: 1st April 2022
