Review of the Family Building Society, Savings:

Uploading is not simple!

I wanted to do the simple task of uploading a document as requested but logging into my account did not give me the option... why not? It would seem to be the obvious place to find the upload option. Reviewed on: 17th March 2025

A guardian angel..

I have just spent a long time on the phone getting assistance with opening procedure for an account. The lady in question is Catherine. She has been absolutely brilliant, showing enormous patience with a 93 year old struggling with the IT world. A superb experience with someone who epitomises good customer service. I cannot speak too highly of her. She is a credit to Family bs. Reviewed on: 9th April 2025

Helpful customer services

I needed more information about opening an ISA account and transferring in previous years ISA savings from another Building Society. It was wonderful to get through quickly to speak to a human being. Kieran Smith from Customer Services was very helpful. He talked me through the process so I could open the account on line while he sent the form for me to request the transfer in.

Happy branch to visit

Epsom counter service is without doubt best I have ever had. Alixis Osborne is to be commended for her polite, knowledgeable & professional customer service. We have been into Epsom branch twice now and have received a hello and cheerful welcome on both occasions. So very rare these days, long may it continue. Reviewed on: 8th April 2025

Information to savers

3
Whilst on the whole I am pleased with the customer service and interest rates offered by the Society I feel there is one major improvement that could be offered to existing savers:- Why can't emails be sent out when there are changes to the Society's interest rates or new accounts introduced ? Reviewed on: 1st April 2025

Full marks to Family Building Society

I was very satisfied with the service that I received from the Customer Services Team when I wished to transfer my funds to an updated Fixed Savings Bond. My request was dealt with in a professional and proficient manner, both on the telephone and online. Thank you very much Family Building Society for your help. Reviewed on: 27th March 2025
