Review of the Saffron Building Society, Savings:

Customer support.

I went into branch with my husband as we were having a problem accessing our online savings.Staff on duty were more than helpful and very patient. We were helped with how to set up passwords and staff downloaded the app onto my phone. As we are older customers this support is invaluable and not something banks offer anymore. Indeed our bank no longer has branches we can access. Reviewed on: 6th May 2025

They answer the phone and then resolve the query. All done very politely. I know that may sound 'normal' but it isn't really anymore. Reviewed on: 1st May 2025

No notice of my ISA maturity by Post. Spoke to a charming and helpful operative on the help number that took my details and opened a two year account to continue savings. I cannot trust my computer with on line finance. Reviewed on: 30th April 2025
