Friendly and professional service.

Friendly and professional traditional customer service. Emma couldn’t have been more helpful in dealing with my enquiry.
Far better than all the modern automated AI etc that has increasingly taken over the world!
Many thanks.

There was no lengthy wait to speak to…

There was no lengthy wait to speak to someone. I explained my problem and Emma understood immediately what I was talking about and was able to reassure me that it could be sorted out very easily. She advised me to send a secure message to set out in writing what my issue was and layer I the same afternoon I received a reply confirming that money I had sent by mistake to the wrong account was returned to my bank.
In summary; a very helpful and knowledgeable response setting my mind at rest quickly. Couldn't have asked for better.

Emma…the saint

What pleasure it was speaking to Emma today, she must have the patience of a saint, my problem being I couldn't access my account which was no surprise as I was using details from a different bank, but Emma sorted it all out in a lovely friendly professional manner ,she is a credit to the building society, and I promise I now have all my details squared away correctly.
