Inverness branch review

Friendly, approachable, helpful - a pleasure to deal with Reviewed on: 29th August 2020

Helpful, friendly, easy

Natalie was very helpful and the service was very good. Reviewed on: 31st December 2025

Good

Would have been useful to have the sort code and generic account number in the passbook or letter to pay in by bank transfer, rather than just in the book 'important information about your savings'. Reviewed on: 31st December 2025
