Local convenience abd good value

You have a branch not far from where I live (the one on Market Hill Royston), so it's easy to pop in; some of your products offer good rates for savers so are worth taking up. It's just pure laziness, why go to Timbuctu if I can shop in Royston. Reviewed on: 24th October 2024

If you could do one thing different it would be to offer bank accounts. Otherwise really happy with service. Reviewed on: 22nd October 2024

Always lovely and helpful people on the phone

Always lovely and helpful people at the end of a phone, knowledgeable about products and quick at actioning issues. Let down by poor online service provision and issues with instructions in the post. My renewal / end of term written instructions sent in the mail were not actioned for months/at all two years in a row - had to call. Should be able to deal with those online, would greatly improve customer service. Reviewed on: 22nd October 2024

I find your rates to be good but not exceptional, otherwise you would have got a 5* rating. Service is just fine and great web service but just push the interest rates up a little please Reviewed on: 21st October 2024
