Everyone is very helpful and friendly. I prefer going into a branch to sort out my savings and when I do, I feel very welcome. I have saved with them for many years and have found their interest rates to be higher than other local alternative providers Reviewed on: 27th January 2026

Brilliant on ALL Fronts.

Joined in branch [Saffron Walden] over 20 years ago. Both in branch and by phone staff are always most friendly, patient and helpful -- especially important to a Nonogenarian like myself in this technologically impersonal world. Never a problem, always a quick clearance of every query and close to the best interest rates. A perfect blend of Service and reward! Reviewed on: 27th January 2026
