I liked that they gave me a mortgage and were understanding when I didn't have a job for a year during covid but have been absolutely awful since. Could be improved by showing compassion, understanding, human kindness Reviewed on: 4th May 2023

I find it very odd that in 2023, to get info about my mortgage, I just receive letters through the post. No online access, no email sent. Saffron would gain to be modernised. Reviewed on: 12th April 2023
