Skipton Building Society Reviews 

My interaction with Martin was excellent. He responded promptly and dealt with my query very efficiently. I have always found Skipton to be a very "decent" company to deal with.

Asked for advice on line and the lady soorted straight away.

Excellent service! Always available, reliable advise and even on the live it’s a human straight away not a Bot. Feels personal like your money is in good hands!

Contacted Skipton on Webchat about a transaction. Jasmine was really helpful and courteous.

I needed to access an account as a Power of Attorney. I was unable to get access but your staff member was very helpful.

Had a chat online with Annie at Skipton Building Society. It was easy, friendly and very helpful. Annie seemed knowledgeable and as I say friendly. Thank you Skipton and Annie.

Alice was super helpful with advising me next steps on how to close my LISA and withdraw funds for the purchase of my first home. I know sometimes talking to people online can be difficult and not as smooth as talking to someone on the phone but Alice was extremely helpful and quick to give me what I needed.

Perfect understanding of my question with accurate response

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.
