Very efficient, friendly service. No fuss.

I am putting money into the Newbury as I agree with its principles. The service that you get is very good- I could say old fashioned- which is just what I expect from a financial service provider. Reviewed on: 14th August 2020

Opening a new savings account could not have been easier.

I telephoned the branch and discussed my requirements re a new savings account. The person I was talking to was friendly, efficient, helped me identify the best account for my needs, took the relevant details and said there would be a package in the post the following day, which there was. Went into the branch with proof of identity and account was set up within 5 minutes. Passbook arrived in the post two days later. Reviewed on: 10th August 2020

Caroline explained everything clearly

Caroline took time to help me understand the various accounts on offer. This helped me to decide which was the right account for me. The online process took longer than I expected. As an existing member I thought the system would have pre populated forms and linked the accounts immediately, but it seemed Caroline had to re-input information you already hold.
