In branch service review

It is Scottish and not owned by the big banks. Would be good to have a local branch in Peebbs. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2024

Marvelous family values

I like the fact that the Society issues certificates of investment for the fixed rate bond. Others don't do this anymore and so that makes you feel like you are dealing with an actual bank with no soul. It would be nice if Scottish BS could sponser the Bay City Rollers when they are on tour. Reviewed on: 21st May 2024

Excellent so far

Love that you're providing a product that people need and other banks don't provide (i.e. internet free, with branches, assistance of a person and passbook). Reviewed on: 20th May 2024
