Skipton Building Society Reviews 

Skipton made the whole first time buyer process incredibly smooth. All options were explained in details and there were no hiccups along the way, it was a smooth as process.

Our mortgage advisor we had spoke to with Skipton was incredibly lovely and arranged everything we needed during our call.

And when we moved in we received a welcome to your new home welcome box, a lovely touch.

Very prompt, complete and helpful response to my query about an ISA. Well done, Megan.

Helpful and patient guidance through my online finances.

Well the lady was friendly but came on to seek advice how to check outstanding balance on mortgage, had to register online, complete registration on the app, but you can't actually complete this as the verification code needs to be posted to you, so it wasn't a success as of yet.

I have a joint mortgage with Skipton and recently split up with my partner. The idea is for me to buy her out of the mortgage. I assumed 10 years of no payments missed payment and an excellent credit score I could Skipton would help me with with some equity along with my own funds, but they came up with some BS answer that even Financial advisor can't explain. But if I switch mortgage provider they will penalise me a 5 figure sum.

The Lady Who i was messaging was very understanding of my request.

I had an online chat with advisor Adam about opening a new cash ISA account and transferring money from an old one. He was extremely helpful and prompt with his answers. I followed his advice and managed the transaction online with no further help needed.

Clear Website and a Human (as opposed to a Robot on the Chat Box

Does anyone else get this or is it just me? Whenever I go into a branch to withdraw money I'm always asked, "are you buying anything nice"? This is a very sly sales tactic that is clearly a way to find out if you are going to reinvest elsewhere, in which case staff can give you the hard sell to try and persuade you to stay with them! Every single time I go into branch this happens. It's none of your business what I do with my money! Maybe next time I'll reply by asking if they're going to buy anything nice when they get paid! I'm so fed up of it I'm going to close my accounts and go elsewhere, so no doubt I'll be asked the same question yet again!!!!!!

Knowledgeable, polite and efficient staff

I am very happy with the service I received today, the lady was most helpful.

Good clear advice from femi and for the details given on a follow up procedure

The difference it makes being able to talk to a human so quickly and easily though the online chat service is what makes Skipton really stand out for me. The staff have helped me so quickly with a range of banking queries. Easily the best customer service of a bank I've ever experienced.

Very efficient and prompt help from Megan. Answered all my questions about dealing with maturity options under a power of attorney and arranged an appointment. Nice to be conversing with a real person.

The staff at the Keighley branch are absolutely wonderful. They go above and beyond and make you feel cared for and valued, not only as a customer, but as a person. Betsy is an angel on Earth; the most kind and caring soul I have had the pleasure to meet.

Everything I have needed to do so far with my mortgages has been straightforward. The app is easy to use and very clear.

I used the webchat and Martin give me the exact information I requested and answered all my questions professionally
