Reply from Family Building Society Hi Steve, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for giving us such positive feedback. We really appreciate it. Thanks, Vicky Response date: 15th February 2019

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

"FAMILY" sums up the service offered.

I am a new "saver" with Family Building Society. Elderly and prone to pushing wrong buttons, I have had nothing but the best and most courteous of help, both written and verbal from The Family Service Team (NEW/AC/RTN/ID) Reviewed on: 21st October 2025
