“Always good and trustworthy”

Helpful Report

“You seem to offer many quality products. Thank you.”

Helpful Report

“I cannot really make a valid comment at present as I have had very little contact from you since my initial investment. I would appreciate online access to my investment so that I can keep up to date with how it is doing. I think it is unusual that you don't provide this in this day and age.”

Helpful Report

Hi Ian, thank you for your review. We know online account access is something our members have expressed an interest in, and it is something we are looking into. In the meantime, if you need any information about your savings plan or member benefits, please do call us on: 0800 988 2418 or email us: memberservices@forestersfriendlysociety.co.uk Kind regards, Foresters.

“We paid our membership but I don’t think we’ve heard from you since then”

Helpful Report

“It was very easy to apply and perhaps more importantly I was please to receive a very prompt acknowledgement of receipt of my application and cheque. I am so very impressed with the contact from the Branch secretary explaining the discretionary payments available to me which in fact provide a kind of extra interest to my ISA. I am looking forward to taking part in the social activities that I understand are organised in better times. Very pleased to have become a member of the Foresters,”

Helpful Report

“I got a great deal when signing up to Foresetrs Friendly and a birllaint rate on my savings plan”

Helpful Report

“Very good and efficient when contacting by phone. I would however, like the facility to review my savings plan and other products via an on line account!”

Helpful Report

“I have been with foresters years ago took another product and was straight forward application online.”

Helpful Report

“Been with foresters over 30 years a fantastic company really glad I found you.”

Helpful Report

“The savings product I am reviewing here is excellent; the £180 M & S vouchers offered after opening it were a big incentive; but my greatest praise is for the way the Foresters Friendly Society has always treated me as an individual and not just a component in a mass of customers. This is rare these days and the way the Foresters Friendly Society communicates with account-holders is excellent.”

Helpful Report

“Really easy application and helpful communication.”

Helpful Report

“Very easy to apply, quick to respond to queries, glad I invested my money with them”

Helpful Report

“My Father-in-Law has been a member for years and highly recommends joining. I took out a Bond but I am surprised it is not possible to check balance/status etc. via an online account. Seems rather old fashioned for 2021.”

Helpful Report

“Simply process to open ISA and suggested returns are better than most.”
