Review of the Family Building Society, Savings:

Great Service

I had a query following the maturity of one of my fixed term products with the Family Building Society. I was answered very quickly from the call queue, and Louise needed to ask a colleague to assist with my query, and promised to phone me back. This she did and the return phone call was made within about an hour. Great service, as always, with the Family BS. Thank you! Reviewed on: 13th October 2023

Spoke with Lisa Adams who was very helpful.

Spoke with Lisa Adams when I needed to transfer funds, as always it was quick and easy to do. Lisa was very helpful, pleasant and professional. Note: Usually they answer the phone quickly, today not so and I eventually opted for a call back, which was ok, except it was then too late for the funds to credited to my bank a/c that day, which being a Thursday means they might not be there until Monday! Hopefully this will not lead to being overdrawn. So, please could there be more people to answer phones in future (It's not usually a problem) Reviewed on: 6th June 2025

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
