Great service!

Highly recommend Family Building Society, I love their Windfall Bonds!! Look forward each month to a win!! Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Great rate and easy access savings

I was looking for a suitable savings account, that offered both a great rate, full FSCS cover, easy access and online management and the one from Family Building Society hit all the right notes. I'm so pleased with this account. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Part of the Family

I have opened a Family Bond account, it was simple and straightforward. They have kept me informed by email throughout. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Friendly, helpful and efficient. We also like the principle behind their idea of supporting families.

We have saved with Family Building Society for over two years now and have always found them to offer decent rates and a very good service. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Nice and simple to use

Chose Family BS due to the ease of the web site and good rates Up to now hassle free Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Innovative product

Great to find a Building Society who creates original saving schemes. In these days of pathetic savings rates they have the 'Windfall Bond' which gives a chance of winning a prize! Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Very friendly and helpful- went the extra mile with their support

They were extremely helpful when I was setting up a fixed term savings account and for some inexplicable reason I was having trouble confirming my id. Due to their assistance I was able to sort out the difficulty which had been plaguing me for ages. Thank you Family Building Society. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

On line savings

I'm not really keen on online accounts but to get anything near a decent % interest it's the way to go. In my experience the people I've dealt with at F.B.S. have been excellent and very helpful. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Easy setup for savings

set up an easy access account with FBS - Easy to set up and manage, with a good rate - so in for the long term. Reviewed on: 26th July 2019
