I have been with SW for many years and I no longer live in the area but chose to stay with them because of their amazing customer service. Always at the end of the phone helpful and efficient. Their new ap is great but I value the fact that I can speak to them . Reviewed on: 27th January 2026

A good old fashion Building Societ one can thrust

I am able to deposit money easily and make payments when I want too. I payment arrives on time and is better than other building societies when the payment arrives at 17:00hrs. I am able to download pdf copies of the accounts. At one time Saffron had the best deposit rate, but these days they are now falling behind other building societies. Reviewed on: 27th January 2026
