I like passbooks. I like that I can visit branches. I like that interest rates are fairly good. I like that it is a mutual organisation. Less paperwork would be good, only information I need to have 0 don't need information on mortgages when opening a savings account. Reviewed on: 26th November 2024

As you enter the shop you are greeted with a smile or a nod if staff are busy. Whoever you are talking to gives good advice and are so helpful in explaining certain products that are new to oneself. Offered coffee if kept longer. Keep up the good work. Different experience from bank. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2024
