I bought a house back in September 2020. This is all thanks to Peter at the Edinburgh office. He provided the best customer service I have ever experienced. Peter worked so hard to make this process as straight forward and easy as possible despite some issues that arose on our behalf. He couldn’t have been any more professional, clear and friendly and I’m so grateful that when I picked up the phone one day to enquire it was him that answered. He is to thank for our amazing first home and we appreciate all of his hard work so much. I highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much Peter. Melissa Cummings

Requesting documentary proof, this by delaying the process by two weeks. Who has paper copies these days anyway. Get Doctors Certify - in a pandemic!

Pamela at the BS advised me correctly, she knows what she was doing and acted on what was promised. It could be better if a/cscould be openned online and verification done by experian checks.

I applied for a monthly savings account but because I did not send up enough ID documents, they cannot open an account. I will now send up further ID but what a faff. The staff on the phone were very pleasant and rang me back as promised BUT the Scottish Building Society must move into the 21st century and do electronic checks. I have accounts with lots of small building societies, Loughborough, Principality, Buckinghamshire and Cambridge to mention a few. They all confirmed my ID by electronic checks. Why can't SBS?
