Tried to load app on tablet after years of no problems only to get message saying app now only available on a phone. No communication to say this was happening. Problem is app doesn't work on Huawei phone and to use website have to go on desktop site on smartphone which is dreadful. Secure messages not answered for ages. Have withdrawn funds, closed account and transfer to another building society with far better app and website as well as customer service. Also allows 2 nominated accounts which Saffron doesn't Reviewed on: 18th December 2024

Excellent Service

On arrival at the branch saying that we had an appointment we were straight away greeted by name and taken to a very comfortable waiting area. Kyle Stanway came to meet us, introducing both himself and Lauren (?) the branch manager who would be sitting in with him. We feel that we were fully listened to regarding which accounts were suitable for our needs. We also discussed suitable accounts for our grandchildren. We left feeling very pleased with the service that we received. Just to say that we will definitely be returning to open accounts for the grandchildren in the very near future once we have their relevant information. Reviewed on: 24th January 2025
