Circumventing the 'block' on releasing tax information

That personal touch

5
Cashier was a ‘nice’ person. Took my feedback of opening a branch in Cheshunt and said she would feed it upwards as you are looking to open another branch. With now no banks or building societies in the town, one would be extremely welcome. Reviewed on: 11th November 2024

Excellent Customer Service

My husband and I went to the Brentwood Essex branch last week to transfer the matured funds from our bond. We needed to know what was best product for us to choose. We spoke to Ally Groves and Ian Eyo. They were very helpful and friendly but professional as well. After asking us about length of time we wanted to invest etc they came up with various options. We eventually chose a 1 year Cash ISA as this suited all our requirements. Both Ally and Ian were great in assisting us, as they had a good knowledge of what was available and were very patient while we decided what to go for. We would definitely recommend Saffron B.S and this branch. With thanks to Ally & Ian for their input as we were quite anxious about dealing with this issue and they made it very easy for us.

Much appreciated help from Molly.

Molly was amazing, so patient and kind. There were no signs of frustration from her all the time she was helping me and I needed a lot of help. She remained cheerful the whole time and deserves to be recognised as a real asset to the society. Thank you so much Molly Reviewed on: 7th November 2024
