Review of the Scottish Building Society, Savings:

Friendly local service

Been a member of the Scottish for many years. Great service and consistently good interest rates without introductory teasers and they're still a mutual. Reviewed on: 11th April 2021

A social community experience.

It is lovely to deal face to face with real people - a social community experience where it seems there is friendship and loyalty. The interest rates are pretty good also. For all of this and more is why SBS has my savings and my bank does not. Thank you SBS. Reviewed on: 3rd December 2025
