We have been with Newbury Building Society for about 4 years and they offer an excellent savings range starting with the Welcome Accounts and then the Existing Member range both of which give very good rates of interest. The staff are helpful and always pleasant. All in all a good company. Reviewed on: 15th November 2019

As a new member of the Newbury Building Society I transferred money from a current account I have with a bank via the internet; there was no problem and it is good to enjoy a hassle-free experience. Why did I not find the Newbury BS sooner? Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

A really good experience

I called in at your Winchester branch to open savings accounts with you at about lunch time last Wednesday. It was a quiet time but I was immediately ushered into a private space where Subhashini Venkatesan took me through all the business and made it so easy. I opened 2 accounts and the passbooks were delivered to me on Thursday. All in all and enjoyable experience and the products seem very good value as well. Reviewed on: 8th November 2019
