That's what being a mutual is all about.
We were founded in 1884 by Thomas Mason Daffern. He created a mutually beneficial relationship between savers and borrowers to help the people of Coventry buy their own homes. You might hear us being referred to as a 'mutual', and this is why.
As a saver, we look after your money and pay as much interest as we can. And as a borrower, we make sure your mortgage is affordable and offers good value, as well as providing great support if your circumstances change.
Your savings and mortgages are in safe hands.
From the little to the life-changing, we make it all add up. All together, better.
Coventry House, Harry Weston Road, Binley, CV3 2TQ, Coventry , United Kingdom

Coventry BS savings interest rates are always competative. Its easy to change from an ISA account to new higher interest paying ISA account online using their App.

Very easy to open the account. Changed my ISA to a higher interest rate. Did this over the telephone and it was done within 5 minutes. The agent was very helpful.

Ultimately spoke to some helpful staff. Was put on hold several times for an unacceptable amount of time.

A traditional building society with every modern element necessary. For me, the human voice or reason was amazing.

Reply from Coventry Building Society
Great customer service from a polite, friendly and knowledgeable advisor who resolved my query quickly and efficiently. This combined with great products makes me stay and reinvest regularly with the Coventry.

Coventry building society never cease to amaze me
Here we are again I have a fixed bond mature 31/8/26 I completed my maturity options on line received the confirmation letter dated 4/8/26 I checked all details and found them correct
I check my accounts this morning to find the monies re invested in another fixed account until December 27
I suggest everyone who has had a maturing ACC to check to make sure monies have gone to the correct accounts
I hope the Coventry reach out to me
Once again shocking service from outdated systems
Updated provided information as requested I don't know why I supplied it as no one has contacted me
I did eventually get the monies to the account I nominated after a long wait for call to be answered and a less than helpful and an unknowledgeable operator
2 days later and despite providing contact details no one has bothered to contact me

Awful - spent days/weeks going back and forth with them trying to set up my daughters ISA with her trust fund money of a few thousand and then they wrote to me weeks after to say the account could not be opened after all as it was not passed the offer date! I tried opening it well before this and it’s their incompetence that led to the delay! In the process of closing my son’s account with them due to this. I’d advise go with the more well known banks/building societies as I can’t imagine them messing around like this.

We needed to withdraw some cash from our ISA account for the first time & thought the whole experience was very easy to understand.
