Review of the Scottish Building Society, Savings:

Friendly local service

Been a member of the Scottish for many years. Great service and consistently good interest rates without introductory teasers and they're still a mutual. Reviewed on: 11th April 2021

Reliable, accessible, professional

Don't change anything - it's the best financial institution I have dealt with. Overtime if online access could be simplifed whilst maintaining security. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

In branch service review

Main thing for us is to be able to go into a branch to speak with someone about our money. Someone who is pleased to see us and nothing being a bother to them. It was our first visit and on leaving we both felt we had made a new friend who was interested in us and our needs. We were both very happy with the service. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

I like the fact you have a branch! The staff were really helpful. The webiste is fairly easy to use. Registration was slightly confusing. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

A trusted mutual

The service I received was absolutely fine. No problems at all experienced. I had a 2-year fixed term ISA so there was no reason for any contact from me to the Society until the maturity of the account. The Society looked after my investment as promised for the 2 years and all went well. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

Professional, value, supportive

The helpful staff and branch manager in Troon are great. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025
