Like the fact it is local access (Aberdeen), there is a passbook and face-to-face rather than online and the clarity of explanations. Reviewed on: 18th April 2023

OKAY - room for improvement online

PROs: Reasonable, but not industry leading, rates; online staff are always helpful and quick to respond. CONs: Website is outdated and clunky; opening an account is a cumbersome process; deposits take days to show up in your account; can be problematic logging in on some devices. SUMMARY: They need to update their online presence to keep up with the times. Note, this review relates to using the building society online, I have never used a high street branch.
