The savings rates are not far short of online competition that do not have the branch system to cost in. As pensioners now we find the service they provide invaluable. Reviewed on: 27th January 2026

They have a physical branch so I can go in and talk to a person. If I phone, I always get a very helpful, knowledgeable person to talk to. I don't need to follow a long ansaphone message and then wait for ages for someone to answer. Reviewed on: 27th January 2026
