Review of the Saffron Building Society, Savings:

Savings Review

Appreciating that you need more security, you wanted a mobile no. to verify us. My wife's mobile is for emergencies only and many people of our age do not have them but we were able to use our e-mail addresses to get into our accounts. Reviewed on: 29th December 2023

Exceptional customer support and competitive account

I feel the savings accounts all competitive but more importantly for me the customer service I have received has been exceptional. I also believe that by saving with saffron building Society, I am supporting their investment in my local community. They have made me feel like they really care about me as one of their customers.
