Good, friendly, helpful advice and pleasant staff at the local office. They are Smart Money People. Reviewed on: 19th February 2024

Branch based service with excellent staff. Good savings rates and good communication always. Very long standing customer and I am always thoroughly satisfied with the Galashiels branch. Not keen on the low chairs in branch as they are painful to rise from and staff loom over me. It's also not very private. Reviewed on: 19th February 2024
