A traditional Building Society with traditional values Reviewed on: 18th November 2020

Great product and excellent customer service

This is my first experience of dealing with Family Building Society, before opening the account I emailed a couple of questions and received a reply very quickly which I found reassuring. The process of opening an account was very straightforward. I would definitely say this was a positive experience. Reviewed on: 18th November 2020

Very competitive interest rates without the risk

5
I have been very impressed with the whole process as a new member to the Family Society, of opening a savings account on-line, and length of the investment - 18 months to invest. This is a much more realistic period of time than competitors who are offering investments for up to 5 years with poor interest rates. Reviewed on: 17th November 2020

Efficient and Friendly Society

The product provided competitive rates and a simple, easy and friendly application process. Reviewed on: 17th November 2020

Good competitive range of savings products

5
I opened a savings account with the Family Building Society a couple of years ago when I discovered their Windfall Bond. Since then I have noticed that their other savings products are in many cases more competitive than some of the big banks and more well known financial institutions and always go there to at least see what offerings they have if I am looking to open a new savings account.
