Yorkshire Building Society Savings reviews (88)

Easy access accounts, poor value vs great value.

I have been a Halifax customer for over 40 years and I have several easy access accounts with the them which are paying just 0.05%. I recently visited Yorkshire building society where I have an account and was pleasantly surprised what they are offering for their easy access accounts. 0.85% if you open an account with £1000 and 1.00% if you open an account with £10,000. I will slowly be moving my money over to the Yorkshire BS. Loyalty certainly does not pay. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Very friendly branch service

Very friendly branch service. Internet savings accounts very easy to operate Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Brilliant and could offer more.

They are fair with their savings approach and products are great. YBS really considers customers needs first. They are so fair in their approach and service I just wish they’d start offering their own current accounts and credit cards. Reviewed on: 13th January 2020
