End of fixed term

I spoke with Lisa who was friendly, informative and very helpful with my query. She was patient and explained everything in “layman’s terms” to me which was very reassuring Reviewed on: 8th September 2025

Customer service team was great each time i called.

Customer service team was great each time i called. Much better than any other banks i deal with. Anne was very helpful. I think your company and staff are great, its just a a shame you dont offer competitive rates. I did call your company before remortgaging but the rates were not so good. Overall a great experience with Saffron. Reviewed on: 5th September 2025
