The staff member didn’t listen to my request properly so wasted 15 minutes, it was eventually sorted. However the branch was stifling with no apparent air conditioning. Reviewed on: 5th September 2022

I think the Saffron Building Soc is the only financial institution whee it is a pleasure to deal with. It is so good to speak to an actual person instead of an automated service. Please do not change!! Reviewed on: 5th September 2022
