Common sense approach to what I asked to be done. I wish you had been quicker to show better savings interest rates. And the BoE meet again in 10 days time when they are likely to raise the base rate again - so you should be quick to react. 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
