Review based entirely on the registration process

This review is based entirely on the registration process - it's clunky, long drawn out and frustrating Reviewed on: 15th April 2024

Reply from Family Building Society Dear Jac, Thank you for your comments. We are sorry to hear that you found the registration process frustrating. We are currently investing in new technology and infrastructure, and we are always looking at ways in which to improve our service to customers. However, we need specific IT solutions which take time and investment, and as a smaller society we have to weigh up the costs and benefits. We do have a dedicated Online Support Team, (03300 243406), who are always pleased to help with any online issues. Your feedback is appreciated and has been passed to the relevant department for their consideration. Kind regards Family Building Society Response date: 1st May 2024
