Easy cash ISA

5
Having unintentionally maxed out my Existing Member Account annual deposit limit I needed to open another interest paying account. I researched several alternative options online l but came back to Newbury Building Society because the interest rate for the service on the Easy cash ISA was comparible to some others and better than many and I have the advantage of being able to visit a branch to talk in person. Opening the account was the work of 15 minutes, so easy, and the lady doing this was friendly and talked me through every step, answered all my questions and provided me with my pass book and the literature associated with the account to read at home. I keep coming back to Newbury Building Society accounts and as a family we currently have and over the last twenty seven years have had, multiple accounts. I would unreservedly recommend them.
