Family Building Society Savings reviews (1101)

Disappointing. Very low number of winning bonds.

1
They claim to have 13 winning draws from the 10,000 bonds each month (1 x £50.000, 2 x£10,000 and 10 x£1000; but in 2015 there were only 12 winners in total for the whole year and in 2016 just 22 winners for the total year, including 3 in a January bonus draw. I wrote to ask how many bonds were actually purchased, but they refused to disclose this. Reviewed on: 12th February 2017
