Newbury Building Society Savings reviews (8406)

Well run tradional Building Society

5
Visiting the office in Wokingham is always a pleasing experience. As a savings account customer, I benefit from above normal interest rates. The Society is loyal to existing customers by paying them an attractive interest rate and do not favour new customers at the expense of existing ones. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Personal and friendly

5
In branch I am always welcomed warmly, service is always swift. The personal approach where we still pull up a chair to chat with the advisor makes me proud to bank with them. A First class service every time. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Excellent saving rates, friendly staff, most efficient service

5
I recently joined Newbury Building Society as a new savings investor, being attracted by a very competitive interest rate. My application was completed in branch (Andover) and I was immediately impressed by the friendly and efficient service I received. My savings book arrived 2 days later and this was followed by a member of Newbury Building Society staff checking that my account had been successfully opened. I have been extremely satisfied by the standard of product, the manner in which it has been processed, and the efficient and courteous staff involved in welcoming me to an excellent Building Society.
