The Halesworth branch of The Suffolk Building Society

Visited our local Suffolk Building Society this morning. It was busy, which was good to see, didnt have long to wait. The young lady behind the counter was very helpful, efficient, friendly and greeted me with a smile, which makes a big difference. But on saying that, all the staff at the Halesworth branch are very happy and smiley. As we have no banks in our town now, the Building Society is a god send to everyone in Halesworth.

Help at hand .......

I visited Ravenswoid to register my Power of Attorney on one of your customer's accounts. My meeting was with Laura - who was extremely helpful in many ways. Being hard of hearing she ensured that she spoke slowly, clearly and made sure I had understood everything before moving on to the next subject. She knew the processes well which meant it all happened very smoothly. She explained the details of available investment accounts - and the pros / cons of each depending on what needed to be achieved .. excellent!! The best bit ... meetings should be relaxed and fun ... and that is what happened!! Well done Laura ... I hope the powers that be appreciate your true worth to the organisation. Thank you.
