Wave Community Bank has completely transformed the way I save money. I joined looking for a safe, ethical place to grow my savings—and what I found was so much more. Their savings options are flexible and designed to suit real people’s needs. The Wave Save account has been a game-changer for me; I’ve been able to set multiple savings goals—whether it’s for holidays, emergency funds, or future plans—and manage them all in one place with ease. What really sets Wave apart is their outstanding customer service. Every time I’ve reached out with a question or needed support, I’ve been met with genuine care, patience, and professionalism. It feels like talking to people who actually want to help, not just follow a script. They make banking feel personal again. The mobile app is also super easy to use, which means I’m always in control of my money. I love that I can check balances, move money between my savings pots, and withdraw if needed without any stress. If you’re looking for a savings experience that combines modern convenience with traditional community values, Wave Community Bank is a brilliant choice. I feel more financially confident and secure since joining, and I’ve recommended them to family and friends because they truly deliver on their promise. Reviewed on: 7th April 2025

Savings at Wave Community Bank

I have saved with Wave Community Bank for many years. When it was back as Brighton Community Bank it was slightly easier as I could call in whenever I needed to. I have had no problem at all with Wave, either by phone or email. it is doing something to help others. Reviewed on: 7th April 2025

Easy to set up and navigate around.

I have money from my wages paid directly into my wave acct.From there I have several savings pots set up for various things which I like.I Also have the prize saving acct.I have told other people about this and hopefully they are using the facility too. The only thing I don't like is the fact that there are no dividends paid to members so there is no real financial benefit to having the acct but I like to think that my money might be assisting other folks with loans whatever.
