Savings Accounts

I have been saving with you for a few years now and your interest rates are fantastic compared to other banks/Societies and every interaction with agents and maturities has been an effortless experience. Reviewed on: 13th January 2025

The savings are great, but the website is flawed.

The savings are great, but the website is flawed. There isn't enough information on what happens when accounts including regular savers reach matruity and when we can open the next ones. This means we open them on the maturity month but then are closed, some of us prefer to plan ahead. It would be better to only allow us to open the accounts available and have upfront notice once the pot is filled of our next options Reviewed on: 13th January 2025
