A local branch where I can speak to people directly without a call centre / impersonal approach. More interest on ISAs would be nice. Reviewed on: 28th May 2020

AGM literature

[Words redacted by Smart Money People]. There was a single image of a black woman. It made me feel as a member who is neither as though my views and my votes are not as important as the person featured on the literature. Reviewed on: 30th April 2020

Good service

I've had ISAs with ScottishBS for several years. I've always found their staff friendly and helpful, their communication by post and email is outstanding, and I like saving with a traditional building society. Their interest rates are usually pretty good as well. Reviewed on: 27th April 2020
