Tried yesterday to get online for the first time. Pass word and ID did not work. Was timed out and then ran out of time to phone again that day. Worried about it all night.

Excellent Service

We are a small club and opened a Community Saver Account with Saffron. When we needed to change signatories it was all done and dusted the same day. It was really easy to speak to a human, and all very pleasant and efficient. Thank you Sarah for your help. How refreshing to deal with a financial institution that is actually interested in talking to, and sorting customer problems quickly and easily. Reviewed on: 21st January 2026
