Review of the Skipton Building Society, Savings:

The Lifetime ISA is the Gift that Keeps on Giving

I have been a Skipton Building Society customer for over 3 years now, and it is without a doubt one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life. The first product I used was the Lifetime ISA. Without this account I would not be the position I am in right now where I can put in offers on properties to buy. The 25% interest applied to any savings is frankly incredible! The fact that savings in a Lifetime ISA can only be withdrawn (without penalty) for a first-time buyer mortgage or retirement has been fantastic as it has allowed me to commitment to saving for my future. Admittedly, without the penalty I may very well have wasted a significant proportion of my savings instead of securing it for my future. I will be forever grateful for this product from Skipton Building Society and I know that it has given me the 'leg up' that I needed towards being able to buy my first home!

I find Skipton BS one of the better building society, offering a good range of savings accounts with a good interest rate. The site and app are easy to use and I can do everything I need too online. I find it easy to open new accounts and renew them all online. Skipton offer a good range of different ways to save from easy excess accounts, to bonds, ISA's and save as you go accounts.
