Good old fashioned service

I like non internet branch based financial services. Newbury building society felt more personable than Nationwide building society on initial enquiry. Was able to book a appointment for the time slot i needed . Quite a lot of form filling to do to join but done in 35 minutes. Passbook for 'welcome to Newbury building society' account arrived quickly. The passbook for the ISA transfer account will take longer. I have been advised, as my previous provider will drag their feet. Reviewed on: 8th September 2023

Simple and efficient to deal with (and very keen rates)

I recently switched mortgage products following expiry of an existing deal and the process was really quick and easy - the one criticism of Newbury is that there is no way of viewing your outstanding mortgage balance on-line (which is essential in effectively managing your debts) meaning you need to write, call or visit every time you need an update.

Easy to open senior account - although there was a delay due to my wife having to provide identity, but otherwise very good. Good comms. Getting online was easy and security was thorough but simple to achieve. Reviewed on: 8th September 2023

Easier than expected

It was straightforward to open new accounts having made an appointment to do so. However, the experience would have been vastly improved if the branch (Wokingham) had some form of air conditioning. On a hot afternoon it was stifling. Reviewed on: 8th September 2023
