Great Savings Product

5
I have encouraged both of my children-aged 18 and 20- to open a LISA with Skipton this year. It is great to know that they will both be saving for a house deposit in the future and getting a great bonus. The easy online application helped a great deal. Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

Great advice and customer service

5
I have had really good advice from the Skipton. No pressurised selling, friendly helpful staff and they contact you if there is a better deal to be had. Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Only Cash LISA on the market

3
its been smooth for the most part hoping to transfer in my H2B ISA soon. Reviewed on: 7th November 2017

Could do better

3
I never really got on with Skipton Building Society. I could not seem to get their online account to work, and I do everything online now so this is a huge annoyance. The staff in my local branch have always been nice and polite though so that is a positive. Unsure whether I'd recommend though, would depend on the person. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Skipton Building Society

I've never had a problem with Skipton Building Society yet. They are always very helpful whenever I go into branch and always try to help me get the best return on my money. I would recommend Skipton to others. The one issue I have is that I don't find their website very user friendly but if you live close enough or have transport then you can pop into branch.

My branch of the Skipton maybe small but the service is really excellent. I love the 1 year saver account which I use to save for Christmas, very easy to manage with a good interest rate Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Fantastic service in branch makes it a delight to have this account with the Skitpon. Reviewed on: 19th October 2015

Helpful and clear staff.

5
Created a cash ISA with Skipton due to the competitive offer due to other companies. One of the most helpful meetings I have had with staff when setting up an ISA, and received a lot of clear advice about the investment I was making. Reviewed on: 25th August 2015

On-line Saver with 4% interest

5
I have been a customer of Skipton Building Society for the last 20 years and in January this year they brought out a fixed rate on-line savings account paying 4% interest for the first year. I think this is one of the most competitive rates I've seen for a few years. They are always very easy to deal with - either in the local office or when you telephone their UK based office. When I had to "wind" up my parents estate last year after their passing they were most compassionate and helpful. Every so often they have a deal on where they will do a free Will writing campaign, which I took advantage of last year. When the interest rates change on any savings account - they always write to you well in advance so that you can move your money to a higher paying account. I would recommend Skipton as a trustworthy Company to invest in. Reviewed on: 9th August 2015
