Your current bank

Whiteaway Laidlaw Bank

You speak to faceless, anonymous operatives in a call centre.

You speak to a person you know by name, who knows you, and your business.

You’ve never met your branch manager (if indeed your branch has one).

You deal with a dedicated account manager who makes it their business to understand yours.

Your bank’s main concern is their own business performance and keeping shareholders happy.

Our main concern is the performance of our customers business - because your success is our success

Multinational, multilingual – in every language except yours.

A bank that’s rooted in the culture of the North and the Midlands, we are local but not parochial.

Laborious procedures make decision-making a slow process – so you’re kept waiting and your business suffers.

Excellent internal communications and streamlined systems mean we can respond to you quickly and keep your business moving.

One size fits all, and you’re just one of millions of customers who are all (well, more or less) the same.

You’re unique, your business is unique, and gets the specialist business service it needs to succeed.

One size fits all – until it comes to handling your business and your personal accounts.

One port of call for your business and personal banking, and the same level of personal service for both.

Having to explain your business to yet another new employee.

Having the same dedicated account manager for years on end.

A bank that wants to insure every aspect of your business – and charge you handsomely for the privilege.

A bank that ensures your business success, with good advice and low charges.

A bank that charges you a lot of interest, and pays a little.

A bank that pays a generous interest rate on your savings, and keeps charges to a minimum.

The security of a big bank, but the feeling of being just a tiny little fish in their rather big pond.

Your Bank is part of the mutually owned Manchester Building Society Group whose culture is very different to a stock market listed Bank, and we treat all customers as important customers.
