So efficient and pleasant to deal

So efficient and pleasant to deal with on the phone and really competitive interest rates. Unlike many, they still do postal accounts which we much prefer but you can do online if you so wish. Also you can phone them and they are very helpful. Documents come through quickly on postal accounts and with a Certificate. So, this is why we would recommend them. Reviewed on: 31st October 2025

Family BS among the Best

Being with several Building Societies, Family BS ranks among the best: Very informative, good interest rates and customer service. Only criticism is that they send a paper annual statement instead of by email or on the web site. Reviewed on: 30th October 2025

Your feedback regarding annual paper statements has been passed on to the relevant team to support ongoing improvements to our services.

Open an account.

Went in to the branch to open an account. The assistant gave me the relevant documents to fill in and had crossed out the parts which did not relate to my application, thus saving my time. Passed the documents back, checks were made and I had the account I required. Everything went smoothly in and out less than 20 minutes. Reviewed on: 28th October 2025

Opening a Market tracker savings account

I opened the market tracker savings account online but had to go into the branch to transfer money into it from my branch saver. I was treated very well as is usual in that branch. Reviewed on: 25th October 2025
