Seamless, easy LISA

I had a Skipton LISA for a number of years, everything was easy to set up, the app was easy to use and navigate and when i came to buy a house with that money as the deposit the whole process was seamless. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024

They're one of the few that offer a Cash LISA

It's been a smooth process and due to the method of transferring the HTB to LISA i got 25% for the entire HTB balanced (which ended on the last tax year). Couldn't be happier. Reviewed on: 9th November 2018

Simple and Efficient

Skilton Life ISA was simple to set up, easy to deposit money each month and the HMRC bonus is instant for helloing first time buyers. The house value is limited to £250k for the U.K. on a help to buy but the Life ISA is £450k Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Helping us where the big banks let us down

Skiptons did an amazing job launching the lifetime isa. At a time where house prices are higher than ever it has never been harder to be a first time buyer! Skiptons are giving us a method to cut through the pain and get into our first home quicker! Reviewed on: 8th January 2018

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

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

Could do better

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
