What's not to like! I've had accounts with Saffron for at least 20 years. Interest rates may not be the highest available but this is more than made up for by local (ther... Read more Reviewed on: 1st February 2026

Review of the Saffron Building Society, Savings:

Savings Review

Haven't received any written confirmation about the new bond. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2024

Easy to contact and very helpful.

Easy to contact and very helpful. Good regular savings account. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

A good deal for charity funds

Twelve years ago, looking for a place to deposit church funds and get a good return, I came across Saffron's Charity Tracker account. The funds placed in 2014 are still there, providing a return significantly better than that available to charoties from most banks and building societies. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

A great offering.

I have several savings products with Saffron and am very impressed with the rates offered and the ease of use. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

PROBLEMS WITH AN INSURANCE COMPANY..

I was having problems with an insurance company, which I asked Saffron to look into for me, after both myself and the Saffron phoned them a few times the problem was sorted. I don't think I could have sorted it without their help. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

The savings account products are great & awesome.

The savings account products are great & awesome. Staff are quite friendly and helpful. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

I like the local branches that are still open.

I like the local branches that are still open at tye moment. Customer service generally answer questions pretty quickly. On line services could be a bit quicker to respond. The Portal needs tidying up a bit to make it more intuitive. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

Service & availability..

I have always found your staff available on the phone, responsive & helpful. Your savings products are good value for existing customers. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

They have local branches, and give good savings rates.

They have local branches, we do not do online savings, only use building with local branches. They give good rates and are very helpful. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

High Ratings All Round

The savings rates are competitive and, through my various dealings with staff by phone or e-mail, I have always found them to be very helpful in meeting my requirements. Saffron has a programme to keep its customers "involved" if they so wish, including a Members Room where opinions of customers are sought. In addition they hold occasional events, when customers have the opportunity to meet directors and senior staff, as well as exchange news and views with other members. In summary, I consider Saffron Building Society to be an excellent organisation. Reviewed on: 28th January 2026
