Reasonably quick to answer phone, Lisa set me on the path to finishing registration. Glad you have introduced 2 factor authentication. Reviewed on: 22nd May 2025

It was necessary to speak to customer service on a number of occasions to resolve a particular problem in opening a new savings account. Everyone we spoke to were very kind and very helpful and eventually were able to resolve our problem Reviewed on: 30th January 2025

Mortgage and Savings review

5
WE have had a family mortgage with the society and a number of savings products. All products were competitive and the service has been excellent and felt personal. Not just a number? Security when calling is thorough and reassuring. Tracker funds give a good return and easy to operate. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2025
