A small personal organisation offering value for money services. I have used online services but have not visited a branch so cannot comment on that aspect. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff AND a local branch open when I want to use it. Godd savings rates as well. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Proving small is still often better

5
Savings rates are average to good, customer service is excellent - whether on the phone or in branch. Vernon BS proves that small, local building societies can still compete whilst bringing old school attention to detail and service. No app, and online banking is clunky, but for savings this is ok.
