I wanted to close an old account and open a new one with the balance. Done. A short, secure message was all it took. Reviewed on: 18th October 2021

Wanted to withdraw money urgently but didn't have registration code. Was given this immediately over the phone and was able to go ahead, unlike Skipton who have to send you a letter through the post which could take a few days, absolutely no good in an emergency. Reviewed on: 20th September 2021

Poor Service opening Windfall Bond

Information was miskeyed by Family BS when I requested a joint Windfall Bond, which resulted in unnecessary correspondence and delay with my application. Reviewed on: 10th September 2021

Considering I only wanted to transfer 10k from a FBS ISA to an FBS Windfall Bond I thought the application process unnecessarily convoluted. Needed two phone calls to your office to get it completed, but we did get there in the end ! Reviewed on: 8th September 2021

The lady I spoke to yesterday and the gentleman today were most helpful and courtious . Call back was received within ten minutes of my original call . Excellent service. Far superior to other Building societies/ banks etc I had the misfortune to deal with . Reviewed on: 3rd September 2021
