Lisa Adams, the Customer Service representative I spoke to, was very polite, helpful and attentive throughout the phone call, which was to arrange what I wanted to do with a savings bond due to mature next week. Reviewed on: 21st October 2025

I am treated as a valued customer in the Branch .

I am treated as a valued customer in the Branch which is unheard of in a Bank today. I do business with several Banks and I am ALWAYS made to feel a nuisance for not using the internet to carry out any transactions. Family Building Society make it clear that help in-branch is always an option and I value the face to face availability at times. My husband feels the same.. Reviewed on: 13th October 2025
