Review of the Saffron Building Society, Savings:

Efficient transfer of monies

Kendra was so helpful in advising me how to move money from my bank into an esaver. I had forgotten the sort code and account number of Saffron Building Society. Even suggesting a small sum first before transferring the rest to make sure all was well. She also phoned to let me know that the transfer had gone through and moved an appropriate sum from esaver to ISA. Patient and very personable Reviewed on: 6th September 2024

Resetting online access

I had to call Saffron after my account was locked, as I had got the password wrong. I spoke to Ali, who reset it for me and offered to stay on the line while I tried to log in again. I didn't take him up on this and predictably got something wrong again. When I rang back I was surprised to speak to Ali again - it's pretty rare to speak to the same person twice on helplines. He was very patient in explaining clearly what I needed to do and making sure that it worked this time. Reviewed on: 19th January 2026
