Accessibility, friendly, helpful

I like that there are branches which are accessible; that you can call branch direct; the staff know me; it is a Scottish Building Society. Maybe a bit more interest on savings though I understand costs also. Reviewed on: 27th January 2025

In branch service review

5
Good telephone service when needed as too remote to access branch services - some problem with online account in trying to get online. Several failed attempts, had to ring to get account unlocked. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2025

Great online experience

5
I have been very happy with my experience. I have an online ISA with you. It went smoothly setting up the account, and more recently transferring to another ISA with you on its maturity. A little more time would have been helpful in receiving the letter about transferring as I was on holiday for two weeks. I would suggest 1 month notifications. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2025

Recent experience was online

Excellent service. Had mortgage previously with SBS. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2025
