Nominated Bank Account not appearing.

Nominated Bank Account not appearing. Needed to change password. Had to wait in telephone queue for 20 mins. When I eventually got into my account, no nominated bank account appeared to transfer money into, despite having used this many times before. So had to phone again and wait 15 mins in queue. When I eventually got through, your employees were friendly, patient anfd helpful. Reviewed on: 8th June 2024

Most frustrating is getting the app to work.

Most frustrating is getting the app to work. Need to support access but system does not seem to support this. Reviewed on: 5th June 2024

Telephoned last Saturday morning.

Telephoned last Saturday morning. Waited over half an hour to speak to someone. My queries were answered to most of my satisfaction, but I felt sorry for the staff on duty. Was it a good idea to announce the new regular saver on a Saturday morning with so few staff on duty? Would it not have been better to bring in more staff on Saturday or leave the announcement until Monday? Reviewed on: 5th June 2024

Excellent small and local building society

It is easy to contact Saffron by phone and speak to a real person. The staff are always helpful, friendly and polite. Communication whether by post or email is efficient. Interest rates are generally good. Reviewed on: 5th June 2024
