Review of the Yorkshire Building Society, Cash ISA:

A large professionally run Building Society

A fair Building Society , which acknowledges Savers & Borrowers in this competitive area . One feels confident to be associated with Yorkshire Building Society . Reviewed on: 26th September 2022

Very simple app to use and good interest rate at 5.2%

I have 2 cash ISAs with YBS - the only thing I dislike is that they close the account and stop you putting any more in it quickly, however now I know this, I'll just wait until I have the amount I want to save each year. Great interest rate of 5.2% on one of them and the app is really simple to use. Reviewed on: 7th April 2025

This pathetic organisation is either xenophobic or racist

This pathetic organisation is either xenophobic or racist. My wife decided to open a cash ISA and to transfer part of her existing cash ISA balance as the interest rates were higher than her current ISA. Submitted her application and went through the ID checks conducted by external company. Was then contacted by their HQ asking lots of questions about her background, some of which were very strange but they advised this was part of their standard checks. She asked if there were any problems and was advised there wasn't but they would contact her if they had any further questions. When she hadn't heard from them but the account still hadn't been activated by them she recontacted and they informed her they were still awaiting the ID check, which was rubbish of course as this had already been completed and confirmed. She asked to speak to someone else and was then kept waiting for a few minutes before being cut off. I can't image that a so-called 'professional' organisation could be so incompetent and I'm sure their action is due to the fact that she was not born in the UK, although she has been a British citizen for many years. She's now opened an ISA elsewhere who welcome non-British born customers. Reviewed on: 21st April 2023

Great rates and service

So simple - easy and intuitive. Ready to open and use online Reviewed on: 30th March 2023

Good Company

I have saved with YBS for years. They have good rates with knowledgeable friendly staff. The company cares and is transparent. Honesty goes a long way. Reviewed on: 26th March 2023
