Scottish Building Society Branch Review

Disappointed there is no longer a regular savers account. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2022

Reliable, efficient, timely

4
My experience with SBS is limited to the post and the telephone. I will say that the Society deals with all matters in a timely and efficient manner and on the occassions that I have rung the call was answered promptly as I was dealt with in a courteous and efficient manner. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2024

Friendly, local, mutual

5
Can be contacted by phone; but too much chat before I can get through, the message could be condensed. Took 2 calls to sort issue. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2024

In branch service review

Excellent service

5
At all stages, both in branch and on the phone, the staff have been so nice and helpful, and very easy to deal with. Reviewed on: 19th August 2024

Friendly, professional, personal

5
I am 77 years old and do not trust the internet (I can only access it at a local library). Therefore I absolutely have a face-to-face relationship. It is much more secure against risk, i.e. internet related fraud. My fixed rate ISA is a face-to-face product, only available to members. Reviewed on: 19th August 2024

Good helpful service

5
I like the selection of the accounts, the interest rates are good and they still have passbooks as most others now do not. Reviewed on: 19th August 2024

Clear, straightforward operation

5
Everything was quite straightforward. The agents I spoke to on the phone were easy to understand and responded with clear information and made me feel confident and reassured. Reviewed on: 16th August 2024

Friendly, professional, efficient

5
I received a very warm welcome when arriving at the local branch, my enquiry was dealt with quickly. All my questions were answered professionally. Reviewed on: 16th August 2024

Society geared to customer needs

5
Efficient and polite, very satisfied. My requests answered promptly. Always have to request cert. of interest at the end of each year. Reviewed on: 15th August 2024
