I have been dealing with Nottingham BS for almost 3 years due to my profession and recently I have managed to secure a Mortagge with Nottingham BS for my BTL. I always have a great experience no matter the department I have to speak with and most definitely would recommend Nottingham BS to friend and family. Read more Read less

They can’t be bothered to do it themselves so pass you off onto a company called Optima, which isn’t made clear in the initial process. This company is shocking and Nottingham are nearly even present in the whole process! Read more Read less

About Nottingham Building Society

Your financial needs and personal circumstances are ever-evolving. Your money goals are one of a kind. You're saving for different things and earning money in different ways. Work might not be 9–5 anymore.

You may be a millennial dreaming of your first home. A foreign national facing restricted access to credit or unfamiliar rules. Or a silver fox planning to retire in style. No matter your situation or credit score, you’ll find mortgages and savings that fit.

Unlike banks, a mutual building society means shareholders don't cash in. No bumping up strangers' bank balances. No hidden agendas. Just a focus on giving you a fair shot at stability and success.

    Charitable Contribution

    I was impressed the fixed rate bond we offered meant that NBS would also donate to two charities supporting great causes (Shelter and Emmanuel House).... I was impressed the fixed rate bond we offered meant that NBS would also donate to two charities supporting great causes (Shelter and Emmanuel House). One of the charities was local to the NBS community and focussed on homelessness which is an issue that affects Nottingham (and other towns nearby). I felt like we made a real difference.

Myself and my family were searching for our forever home and had been rejected by a number of the large banks, even those that we had been customers of for nearly two decades. We felt like we were being treated like a number and that decisions were being made about us from a spreadsheet rather than as a unique case. That wasn't the case with Nottingham Building Society who provided us with options when no-one else would and allowed us to take out a mortgage that enabled us to get our forever home. I can't thank the broker and Nottingham Building Society enough for treating us like people and taking our application forward. Read more Read less

Unlike the banking experiences in Sheffield Centre branch we were treated with common courtesy by more than one employee. In less than 15 minutes we transacted our business in a fast secure way even though the lovely lady admitted she was new to the job. Ten out of ten for customer satisfaction Read more Read less
