Review of the Family Building Society, Savings:

Very satisfied new customer

I have invested with many building societies over the years, and have been very impressed with the way The Family Building Society has dealt with my initial application. I particularly like the posted savings certificate and letter, together with Dedicated Contact Details etc. I know we should be heading for a paperless world, but I do like to keep some hard copies on file.

Outstanding, Patient Support from Dyllan Wright

From the moment I first got in touch, Dyllan Wright was outstanding. He was warm, courteous and patient, taking time to understand my situation and explain every option in plain English. Throughout the process he kept me updated, checked I was comfortable with each step, and made what could have been complicated feel straightforward. It’s clear he cares about customers and takes real pride in his work. Thanks to Dyllan, I feel fully informed and very confident in my decision. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Family Building Society after this experience. Reviewed on: 4th June 2025

Bond maturity decision

It took a little time to get through on the phone, however, Ellissa Agodi was excellent when I got an answer. She was very polite and clear and informed me of my options regarding my bond maturity. She then processed this quickly and answered any other queries I had. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2025

Long wait but good end result

The wait to be put through to an assistant was far too long. Unfortunately this is the way many businesses are going these days, but this does not make the situation acceptable. Once I got through to an assistant, the lady was very knowledgeable and helpful and was also well spoken. She resolved my query satisfactorily. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2025

Thank you Ellissa Agodi!

Thank you Ellissa Agodi for all your courtesy, help and explanations this morning. I was beginning to despair of ever getting through on the phone as I tried three times and had to give up after 20 minutes each time until I finally got out though to Ellissa, who was brilliant at helping me out!

Spoke with a very knowledgable and patient lady who helped me reset my access to my account - she was very understanding and didn't rush me through the procedure at all. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2025

Ellissa Agouti deserves a medal.

Ellissa Agouti deserves a medal. She was helping me sign into my account which took over an hour and she was the most patient person I have ever encountered. She was unfazed, uncritical of any mistakes I made. Informed. No problem was too great she didn't complain or get exasperated but continued through to the end. She desderves the hightest praise.
