Newbury Building Society Savings reviews (8725)

Friendly, family like service

5
Good service and great rates for loyal members. A company where they repay loyalty in service and products Reviewed on: 5th January 2018

excellent service

5
From the moment you walk into the Newbury branch there is a welcoming cashier who is both knowledgeable and helpful. Not only does she deal with your present enquiry but then goes on to suggest other products or ways in which they can offer a service. I had opened a savings account for my grandson but when my grand daughter arrived I had no hesitation in taking her along, with my daughter, to open her account. Both children received a little piggy bank...nothing can beat an early start in the saving habit! Reviewed on: 5th January 2018

Savings rate

One of the best savings rates in the UK. The society also provided us with a mortgage to help our son to buy his own house. They also provide him with a mortgage after being refused one by another building society. Reviewed on: 5th January 2018
