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 (therefore easily accessible) branches and truly excellent customer service. There has never been a bad experience whether online, by phone or in person! All advisors have been friendly, helpful and efficient, and on the rare occasions there has been an error or a problem it has been quickly rectified. Personnel in my local branch (Royston) are courteous and patient, and never 'pushy' about mentioning new or possibly more suitable products. Altogether dealing with Saffron is a pleasure!

Haverhill staff

The staff are always very friendly and knowledgeable, you never have to wait very long before being attended to. I like the way they are involved with the local community. Reviewed on: 1st February 2026

Great Buolding Society

Always a keen offer available and NOT limited to local customers only. Reviewed on: 31st January 2026

Friendly and professional

I visit my local branch and staff are friendly and professional. I don't have to wait long. It's great that they still support smaller local communities with branches. Reviewed on: 31st January 2026

Great customer service and good interest rates

Easy to open and manage my account. Staff have always been helpful when I've required help. I like that they pay higher interest rates than the banks, and offer a variety of accounts. Reviewed on: 30th January 2026

Savings are made easy.

Savings are made easy. I have had a regular saver for years and love the way it works. I can ring for information when I need a personal touch and also check payments made on the app. Reviewed on: 30th January 2026
