Review of the Nottingham Building Society, eSaver (discontinued):

Bureacratic and poorly run

1
Moved my savings here after finding them on a maoney-saving site. Offered a good interest rate on an online account. I wanted instant access as am doing up my house and need to pay builders etc. Have tried to move funds to a current account but was made to jump through hoops: forms to be filled in which then had to be certified. Luckily, I have a friend who is a doctor so was able to get this done free of charge. Forms were all sent via snail mail which defeats the object of an online account. Hence, this took days rather than the minutes when amending details on a laptop. Forms also failed to arrive. I've asked them to close the account now. So, the 'instant' access has taken almost a month now. Oh, and they manged to leave a £1000 of mine in a 'suspended' account which made me even more frantic as I'd thought it had been lost. What is more, while they do pick up the phone quickly, you are then left on hold for 5-10 minutes which is far too long when you're paying for the call. Reviewed on: 4th May 2017

Most tasks can be done Online

Although I can do most tasks online, it's good that if you do go into the branch, the staff are friendly and helpful. Rates are good for a local building society. Reviewed on: 27th March 2025

six month bond

Useful six month at competitive interest rate that seamlessly renewed. Shame this does not look likely to be repeated. Reviewed on: 27th March 2025
