I managed to lock myself out of my Savings Account so had to contact Saffron directly. Sophia answered my call within seconds and was prompt , polite and efficient in sorting out my issue. I have been a member of Saffron Building Society for over three years and my dealings with him continue to meet my needs and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone.

Zoe provided excellent customer service. She was clear speaking and very friendly. She was able to answer all my questions and effect the changes to my accounts that I requested. Without doubt she was the most helpful and pleasant customer services advisor that I have ever dealt with in any organisation. Reviewed on: 29th October 2025

Website needs clearer calls to action!

Your survey is a bit narrow to answer. However, I wanted to flag that i found the website wasn't particularly obvious where to apply for an account. It was sort of hidden off to the right, in standard text as part of a column. I think it warranted a button to say APPLY HERE or something like that. However, when i went onto chat I was helped by Lewis Hemingway and he was very helpful. Reviewed on: 29th October 2025

Warm welcome good service, and money at hand.
