    Tricky mortgage!

    Alison at the society was absolutely superb throught out the whole process. Our purchase was far from simple and she made us feel at ease and that it would happen

    Poor interest rate, compared with others

    Had to move Cash ISA as interest rate is so bad, compare with other financial institutions.

I opened bank accounts for my children when they were very young so money could be paid in by family. My family wanted me to withdraw the money in time for their birthdays However I hadn’t updated my address and wasn’t able to do anything until this was done. Clare helped sort all the paperwork out and managed to get all the checks done and approved in a couple of days. When I went back to withdraw the money Clare and Karen managed to do all off this in a quick amount of time amazing service from both members of staff Read more Read less

This is to Keira I explained that I have ADHD and that dealing with the various codes and verification steps required by other building societies has been difficult for me. I was anticipating having to apply online and was relieved to find that this was not necessary. You were extremely helpful in managing the process in a way that worked for me, and I appreciate that.
