Review of the Saffron Building Society, Savings:

Regular annual saver account perfect to budgeting

I find your regular annual saver account invaluable and have held one every year since 2013. Mine pays out each 14th December which is ideal for winter peak expenditure. Reviewed on: 11th December 2024

Introduce automatic Small Saver renewal facility?

A have a Small Regualr Saver account, saving £50 a month. I am very happy with it and the interest rate it pays. It has just matured. I want another account, exactly the same. One is on offer and I have signed up for it. The staff were very helpful when I telephoned to ask for the new account. But this renewal process is more clunky than it need be. It could be made smoother if, like the Halifax, the monies in the maturing account were automatically dumped into another, easy access, Saffron savings account, and the monthly payments into the Regular Saver simply allowed to continue. An "automatic renewal" facility would save staff time and the savers' time. People could be asked if they wanted automatic renewal when they first opened a Regular Savings account, or be permitted to opt in (or out) at a later date. Win, win. so why not add this feature and cut unnecessary costs? After all, my new Regular Saver has exactly the same account number as my old one. Reviewed on: 10th January 2025

Professional & friendly staff

I have used the services of the Royston branch gif many years, even after I moved to Cambridge. The staff are always friendly and efficient. Reviewed on: 10th January 2025
