Review of the Scottish Building Society, Savings:

Could do better

I like the Scottish Building Society because it is local, but - I don't do electronic banking. Every year I have to phone you to request a statement of interest received and balances which you send out (so I assume a lot of other people do too), why do you not send it out automatically.

on line account opening useless

Tried to open an on line savings account. Finished but was left not knowing if application was completed as received no email confirmation. Waited 2 days and telephoned support. They could help. Email support, took a week to respond by which time I had abandoned the application. Email and received an immediate response confirming cancellation. Several days later received confirmation of account now open. Abysmal service all round. Would not recommend, Reviewed on: 23rd October 2024
