Great Personal Service

I am very happy with Newbury Building Society as they always update me with relevant information about how I can maximise my savings in a professional , helpful way. I also like the little touches like the photographic competition which culminates in a beautifully produced calendar every year which is made fairly available to all their customers. It is also reassuring to know that they have plenty of local branches, so that I can pop in anytime I want to update my accounts and combined with the convenience of internet banking, this adds up to a highly regarded service.
