Review of the Scottish Building Society, Savings:

Scottish Building Society Branch Review

Staff are welcoming, engaging and supporting, but it would be better if from the start it was confirmed that all intention would be postal. Reviewed on: 16th March 2022

People, not computers

Excellent personal service - seen straightaway, new account opening very straightforward. Full paperwork and passbook delivered very quickly. Reviewed on: 14th October 2024

Most helpful staff

The Inverness branch staff have always been patient and helpful. I made a mess of activating my onnline e-save issue 3 account, but Kirsty and Lauren on the helpline sorted me out and must be commended for their patience dealing with a man with sausage fingers. Reviewed on: 10th October 2024

Professional, efficient, friendly

Staff are professional, efficient, friendly and very kind. A lovely experience coming into Troon. Scottish B Soc though reduced rate to 3.75 from 4.25 which I was not happy about. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

In branch service review

Very pleased that the matter was dealt with quickly and phone calls about same, very good as I am old and don't have a computer. There is where elderly are faced with matters although they can phone okay about their problems if any. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

Polite, friendly, informative

Very pleased as people listen and are friendly and informative. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

Efficient, well-organised, attentive

As I am a new member to Scottish Building Society I am very pleased with the help given and the attentive manner shown when I opened my account. I don't know if any improvements are necessary. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

Value for money

I have very little contact with SBS. Scottish Building Society to my mind are always competitive for savings. Reviewed on: 8th October 2024

Efficiently old-fashioned!

Very easy to arrange appointment.. Everything was ready and prepared in advance for me to sign. Very efficient meeting. Only negative was some delay in liaison between the call centre and branch; had to be phoned back which could have been inconvenient. Reviewed on: 8th October 2024

Safe, accessible, efficient

On this occasion I was simply renewing a bond so all went smoothly. Like the fact there is an office to speak to someone face-to-face. Reviewed on: 7th October 2024

Mutually owned, local

In a world where there is global pressure to privatise everything, it is refreshing to see some businesses that are still mutual. Also, it is nice to have a branch network where you can speak to friendly staff. Reviewed on: 7th October 2024
