Review of the Newbury Building Society, Savings:

Really friendly, helpful staff and also easy to add funds by internet as well.

I met staff of Newbury Building Society at Abingdon Air Show and liked the sound of the account which I subsequently opened in branch. The service I received in branch was very good and the whole process was very smooth. Since then I have used internet access which again is very user-friendly (I'm not computer-savvy, so need simple systems!). Reviewed on: 4th January 2018

Well run tradional Building Society

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
