Review of the Skipton Building Society, Savings:

Great family society

Great value rates and always a friendly face if you need to speak to over the phone or in-branch. Efficient and quite technologically advanced for a building society, transfers usually only take a couple of hours. I also find them excellent for child savings. Just wish they had a Fairer Share like Nationwide! Reviewed on: 11th March 2024

Professional, helpful and decent without pressure.

Excellent advice given and time spent on investing for better savings. No intrusive or controlling behaviour just incredibly helpful, actually knowledgeable and professional from the call centre to the bank staff especially at Ilkley. Super clear communication and actively try to help you not just sign you up. It’s like having an accountant, investment advisor and expert all in one and you still don’t feel pressured. Been wonderful so far for my savings. Reviewed on: 10th April 2024

Helpful staff, limited support hours

I like Skipton. It's a smaller building society with lovely, helpful staff and convenient branches. App and online banking are convenient, the app being functional but not perfect. Skipton sometimes offer competitive products, and their customer service is helpful. However, the limited hours that support is available is seriously limiting, as is the fact that bank transfers can only be completed Monday to Friday before 9pm. Reviewed on: 8th January 2024

Reliable friendly bukding Society

I place trust in the Skipton and its friendly local branches Reviewed on: 30th April 2023

Amazing if you can wait for the money

The bonus 25% is amazing but if you need to withdraw early for something other than a first home then you will not see that bonus. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Fab product for first time buyers

Absolutely love the Lifetime ISA helping people like myself save more towards a deposit. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023
