Local friendly service

Vernon are part of the community, they offer excellent customer service in their local branches with a range of products that are very competitive vs the larger organisations which no longer have local branches and when you do find a branch just don't offer the same level of service Reviewed on: 21st January 2020
Reply from Vernon Building Society Thank you for leaving this lovely review. It is really important to us as a local building society that we can take part in the community and provide our members with the right mortgages and savings for them. Response date: 23rd January 2020

My 98 year old Mother-in-Law is a longtime member of the "Vernon", but no longer able to cope with her finances. With POA over her affairs, my wife and I have received the utmost help and support from the Vernon Building Society, in protecting her interests and administering her financial needs.
