Newbury Building Society Basingstoke office are always very friendly and efficient in the way that they service any account queries and account updating. The society seem to offer competitive interest rates and I consider them to be sufficiently stable enough to trust them with my money. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Impressive Welcome

5
We are pensioners and wanted somewhere with a local office and online facility. On arriving in the branch (Newbury) to open an account we were made really welcome and everything was explained clearly to us. Have not had any need to visit the branch since but so reassuring to know that friendly knowledgeable staff are there for us. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Good Interest Rates

The interest rates are really good, but the limitations imposed by the online offering holds things back. The staff in Alton were fantastic. Reviewed on: 4th January 2018
