Efficient and Helpful

5
I have always found Saffron Building Society fast and efficient in dealing with me. I have opened online accounts which I always find difficult and they have helped me a lot. Reviewed on: 16th February 2026

Thank you Lyn and Saffron

5
Had a great experience with Lyn from the Halstead branch, who was efficient and courteous. She helped me solve my issue quickly, and checked I had everything I needed going forward. It's really heartening to be able to talk to a polite and capable human rather than an AI chatbot - people like Lyn make it feel worth it to bank with Saffron. Reviewed on: 16th February 2026

Being a productive genuine part of the community

5
I have banked with them for over 30 years - they know my name and my face and are very people-focused - they also walk the walk when it comes to community - no performative community here only the genuine thing! Reviewed on: 16th February 2026

Reassured me

5
I was concerned my mobile may have been hacked and my banking apps were on my mobile. I spoke with Jodie who put extra security measures in place and my mind is reassured. Thank you. Reviewed on: 16th February 2026

Excellent customer service.

Saffron staff are always helpful , knowledgeable ,polite and friendly . And of course , unlike some businesses, it is easy to speak to a human !! Which is great positive as I dislike having to try and get an answer from a robot . Reviewed on: 16th February 2026
