(From someone with 25 yrs in the property business, dealing with hundreds of lenders, SRBS is certainly among the best of them).

May I take this opportunity to say how pleased my wife and I have been with the service and support we’ve received from the Stafford Railway Building Society over the years.

From the moment we applied for our mortgage to the present day it’s been a pleasant experience whenever I’ve needed to contact any of you. I would go as far as to say that I’ve actually, looked forward to contacting SRBS and I’m almost sad that we’re closing the account as that interaction will be no more. With other financial institutions, I’m usually filled with trepidation at the prospect of wading through endless AI menu systems that don’t address my question, only to be shunted from pillar to post by inexperienced/untutored operators reading from a computer script.

Please pass on our heartfelt thanks to all the staff there, SRBS has been an absolute pleasure to deal with, and I sincerely hope you never change.
