SBS is a fantastic building society. A long history and a great savings rate. The staff are extremely helpful and the relationship centers provide that personal touch that is lackihg these days. Katie provided excellent service, from opening my account to ensuring my deposit transactions were secure. I Really cannot recommend SBS highly enough. Thank-you Katie and SBS!
