Review of the Skipton Building Society, Savings:

Lifetime isa

An excellent product which sees the government reward you for saving by adding to your savings in line with the amount that you save up to a maximum of £4,000.00 per year for a set period of time within prescribed timescale. All money paid out when you reach age 60 years, ideal savings plan to benefit you at retirement. Reviewed on: 9th February 2020

A really great experience with Skipton. Fantastic from start to finish and helped me on the journey to owning my own house Reviewed on: 22nd November 2019

Local

A few local branches, however interest rates have been decreasing Reviewed on: 22nd November 2019

One of the few products on the market

Competitive rate with the other 2 products on the market for Cash LISAS Reviewed on: 15th April 2019

Lifetime Isa for first home

One of the few banks to offer a lifetime isa and make it easy to understand through their website. The ISA can be managed online and email notifications let you know when the bonus is being applied. Very good and informative bank making it easy for young professionals to hop onto the property ladder. Reviewed on: 12th January 2019

Great product

Great service, easy to use and have recommended to various friends Reviewed on: 9th January 2019

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

One of the best interest rates out there

Very friendly , convenient branch banking Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Lifetime ISA

Unique opportunity for first time buyers to get onto the property ladder and give themselves security in retirement. Reviewed on: 14th January 2018
