Review of the Yorkshire Building Society, Savings:

Simple account set-up and great rates

Simple account set-up and great rates Reviewed on: 6th February 2025

Accessible on our high street

Like to be able to use our high street branch Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

Rubbish out of hours service

Got locked out after continually being told I was entering wrong code. Customer help now closed. Stuck woth no way to transfer money Reviewed on: 26th October 2023

Exemplary service, thank you!

I received stunning service at the London branch this afternoon from Courtney Linley-Lavin. She calmly negotiated the verification of my ID and my mum's, sorted everything out and answered every question before I could ask it. Highly recommend. Reviewed on: 7th September 2023

Competitive interest rates

Interest rates are competitive and increased as base rate increases Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Transparency

I have banked with a few banks and have had savings with them over the years, but none of them come close to the customer care and transparency of Yorkshire Building Society. Every single month they write and explain about their interest rates, product changes, how they are doing as a company and anything that is new. Everything, whether good or not so good is explained clearly and with absolute transparency, this is something that feels good when they are caring for your money. Reviewed on: 17th August 2023

Great Experience

It was a great experience opening a Savings account in person at my local YBS. Friendly and professional Staff who fully explained the process to me. I've now also opened two ISAs online using the YBS app which I found was very user friendly. Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Frequent raises

YBS have been excellent passing on all the interest rate rises and website is easy to use too. Have been a member for over a year now and think entitled to a few preferential products too so all good. Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Great products, loyal customer

I’ve been a customer of YBS for years. Great customer service and reward their loyal customers with great rates Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Friendly and Effecient

Really great experience at Yorkshire Building Society. I'm so glad they haven't closed my local branch. I think speaking to a person is so much better than a chat bot. Reviewed on: 10th April 2023

Good interest on a fixed rate saver

Account was easy to open and has an accessible app. Local branch phoned me within a few days of opening online. Reviewed on: 7th April 2023
