New Scarborough Website Offers An Easy Route Through The Financial Maze

Press release published on 14 March 2008 by Scarborough Building Society

With today’s busy lifestyles, it’s not easy to find time for the thousand-and-one financial decisions we seem to have to make on a daily basis.

And that’s why Scarborough Building Society is re-launching its website to offer a straightforward route to researching the latest good value mortgage and savings products on offer.

Combining a modern feel with straightforward navigation and compliance with the very latest accessibility guidelines, the site is designed to make shopping for good value financial solutions easier for existing members and new customers alike.

For those who know exactly what they’re after, the site is clean and clear enough to take them straight to it, while it also offers a range of options to consider for those who need a helping hand deciding which direction to take.

Inspired by the very latest in website design, it also offers more interactive features, such as savings and mortgage calculators and feedback ‘buttons’ throughout the site.

Richard Pinfold, Group Marketing Manager, said: ‘Our existing site had served us well, but, after two years, we decided it was time for a change. ‘We’re very proud of the replacement, which has been several months in the making and is bright, vibrant and engaging – and practical in terms of presenting visitors with the information they are looking for as quickly as possible, with the minimum of fuss.

‘We hope the new site will complement our commitment to ensuring our customers the best possible standard of service, coupled with mortgage, savings and insurance products offering some of the best long term good value available.’

In order to ensure that all members are able to enjoy the full benefits of the site it complies with the highest standards of accessibility.

To make things easier for busy people on the move, the site also conforms to the latest technologies needed to enable viewing on mobile devices such as mobile phones, as well as PCs.

The site is also jam packed with the latest news and information about the Society and its community activities, including links to its Corporate Social Responsibility microsite. At www.scarboroughbs.co.uk/together, members can find out all about the charities Scarborough is associated with, or even nominate the charity of their choice for funding, by visiting the CSR site.
