I invested with Forresters because there was a good cashback offer via Quidco, but this has not tracked and I have had to set up a claim for it to be investigated, so first impressions have not been great.

Hi Alice, Thank you for leaving us a review. We're sorry to hear about your experience via Quidco and have found that on occasion this does unfortunately happen. We can however get in touch with Quidco on your behalf to ensure the claim is progressed. If you could please contact us by phone on 0800 988 2418 or by email memberservices@forestersfriendlysociety.co.uk with your Quidco claim reference number we would be happy to do this for you. Thank you, Foresters

I was surprised not to have been granted access to a web platform where I could review my savings account with you. (Did I miss something?) I am interested in more detail about what kind of fund(s) the savings have been attached to. (Or am I misunderstanding its 'fund-like' nature?) And, naturally, I understand you probably don't want me to remove my money any time soon, but I was curious that there were no instructions on how I would go about doing that when the time comes. (Did I miss that too?)

Made me happy when I found out my great grandfather was employed by them as Secretary from 1915 to his death in 1937 (F.D. Webb).

Very straightforward process to apply and set up an investment on-line. Paperwork arrived promptly. Good to become a member of a Mutual and particularly the Foresters as they gave my parents the mortgage to buy the family home I was raised in.
