Review of the Skipton Building Society, Savings:

A clunky not so ethical building society

Has some great products including low value fixed savings, and reg savers, plus the app is easy to use. One of my accounts matured, but getting the money out required logging into the desktop and setting up nominated bank account.. for each of the accounts I had; 4. Took more effort than needed, and meant I received 4 paper letters to confirm the changes. They're powered by Barclays which has terrible green credentials, ill fitting for the ethics of a building society. Reviewed on: 9th September 2024

Excellent experience with Skipton Building Society

I’ve had an excellent experience with Skipton Building Society! Their customer service is outstanding—friendly, helpful, and genuinely interested in finding the best solutions for your needs. Whether in-branch or online, the process is smooth, transparent, and straightforward. Their savings products are competitive and well-suited for various goals, and I particularly appreciate their no-pressure approach when discussing mortgages or investments. The app and online banking platform are also very user-friendly, making it easy to stay on top of your accounts. It’s clear they prioritize their members' needs and maintain a personal touch, which is rare these days. I would highly recommend Skipton to anyone looking for a trusted and reliable financial institution. Reviewed on: 27th January 2025
