Review of the Saffron Building Society, Mortgages:

Excellent customer service.

Excellent customer service. Knowledgeable polite and friendly and easy availability compared to other banks Reviewed on: 5th November 2024

My view of Saffron BS

The staff are excellent and it is great to be able to talk to a person direct. It also helps that the calls are not dealt with by a overseas call centre. Saffron offer an excellent service but you do have to accept paying slightly higher costs for this. Reviewed on: 30th May 2024

We had to renew our mortgage product.

We had to renew our mortgage product. My overall experience was good. Reviewed on: 22nd May 2024

Great company

Great company, enabled us to purchase our first home. As a young couple with 2 small children it was almost impossible to purchase a house but Saffron made it happen for us Reviewed on: 21st May 2024

Helpful and understanding

Having lost my husband and left with financial issues, Saffron Building Society have been brilliant in helping me through a very difficult journey in my life. I can’t speak too highly of the service I have received. Reviewed on: 20th May 2024

Fixed term ends in 6 months but I can't get a new deal from you for another 3 months. I am looking to get a new deal now so will have to look elsewhere. Reviewed on: 20th May 2024

Great Staff

Your staff are both friendly and helpful. I feel they are a little let down by the IT, however, I have not used the app so I cannot give you feedback on that service. Egress seems to have issues with handling files. Reviewed on: 20th May 2024

Customer service from Lisa

Lisa was lovely to speak to, very polite and understanding of it can be financially difficult at the moment. Mentioned that she had to manage my expectations but at the same time would do her best to do what she could Reviewed on: 18th May 2024

Continuity of care and attention.

Continuity of care and attention. Speaking to the same person year after year, in particular Rosanna, making me feel valued and looked after. Have always felt like Saffron care that I am happy with the product Reviewed on: 13th May 2024

Product switch was easy

Product switch was easy and talking to a real person every time is how it should be done!! Reviewed on: 8th May 2024

Buy to let with parents as tenants

I have taken out a buy to let mortgage that has my parents as tenants. I am ensuring they have a home for life! Although saffron are one of the few lenders to offer this, it’s interest only and I’d much prefer a repayment mortgage. Customer service from saffron has been excellent! Actually saved my sanity when my solicitors were dragging their feet. Very friendly, down to earth and explained everything really clearly. Reviewed on: 30th April 2024
