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

Mutual Building Society with the community at the heart of it's interests

Each time I visit a Branch of the Newbury Building Society the staff are so helpful and welcoming. It really does feel as though they have managed to strike the right balance between providing the local community a service that is second to none and still maintain an excellent business and professional approach.
