My two year savings bond is due to mature on December 12 2024 and I was given excellent advice by staff at the Royston branch. I have now prepared for the majority of the funds to be transferred into a new one year bond with the interest paid into my bank account. Great service Reviewed on: 2nd December 2024

Friendly and Efficient Service - Highly Recommended

Chose Saffron BS as we had our mortgage through them and it all went smoothly. Interest rates for savings were competitive. Excellent service when visiting to gather more information. Staff were friendly and informative. Seen quickly and given all the information and contact details we needed to go home and set up the ISA. Follow up contact was brilliant.
