Suffolk Building Society Branch Review

Traditional thinking and beliefs that are carried forward. Reviewed on: 15th February 2023

Friendly, helpful, goes that extra mile

Always leaves me with a positive vibe. Staff so helpful and smiley, they feel more like a friend as opposed to the usual just down to business feeling. Good products cover all types of savings for all ages. Bet with them years and never had a problem, plus they do some amazing local experiences for their customers, and raise money for local charities. Reviewed on: 14th February 2023

Wish I had moved sooner

For years I have put up with the derisory rates offered by my bank, however I decided to change things after after recommendation and research I moved our ISA to Suffolk. The switch was seemless, explained and undertaken by the very helpful branch staff(Ravenswood), just wish I had done it sooner. Very happy customer Reviewed on: 13th February 2023

Good, clear information and friendly staff

I am happy with the service but did not approve of the change of name from the Ipswich Building Society and was not asked my opinion. I assume the change cost a lot of money! Reviewed on: 13th February 2023

Expert and local

I love my local Suffolk Building Society as it is so helpful having a branch on my High Street with such helpful and friendly staff. It is so convenient to be able to pop into the branch and talk to a real person, rather than the alternative ghastly online banking that is so impersonal and offputting. The Suffolk Building Society offers great products and services with competitive interest rates and relevant savings advice. Reviewed on: 13th February 2023

Local & Friendly

The building society has a welcoming entrance, The people who work there are friendly and eager to serve. They are knowledgeable about all their products . Reviewed on: 12th February 2023

Extremely helpful in-person meeting

All our questions were competently answered in a very friendly way and we were able to make an informed decision based on the knowledge of the manager. My only criticism would be that the rates of interest on the savings accounts we were considering were the lowest of the options that we tried. Reviewed on: 11th February 2023

Informative & friendly

The staff at the Woodbridge branch of the Suffolk Building Society were informative, friendly and patient with all my questions. They didn't rush me or pressure me in any way. Altogether very professional. Thank you, Suffolk Building Society. Reviewed on: 11th February 2023
