Review of the Family Building Society, Savings:

Windfall bond

Get the feeling that Windfall bond holders are second class savers, why not let us know each month, even if we have not won, by email? Reviewed on: 29th January 2019

Reply from Family Building Society Thank you for your question regarding the Windfall Bond. The Windfall Bond draw is on 10th of the month and winners are notified within 10 days of the draw. We are required to verify the winning account holders before we can publish their information. We aim to have our winners list published on our website as soon as all account holders are verified, and some months this process can be quicker than others. However, your feedback is appreciated and I have passed your comments regarding e-mail notification to the relevant team, so that they can consider any improvements to our communications in this regard. If you need any further help, please email [email protected] or call our Family Service Team on 03330 140144. Thanks, Vicky Response date: 5th February 2019

Great customer care.

My account was locked, some interest had been reinvested which I was expecting to be forwarded to my nominated account, however after a conversation with Donika and security check both problems were resolved in a friendly and professional manner. Reviewed on: 30th September 2025
