Review of the Barclays, Fixed Rate Mortgage:

Terrible service

Don't give these jokers your business. They employ complete morons to assess your application and also the solicitors provided are useless. Cannot understand simple documentation and time consuming. Don't let the low rates suck you in. Reviewed on: 21st March 2018

While paying and getting mortgage I would give 11 out of 10 easy n helpful. Paying mortgage off at end shocking service. Phoned 3 times given different information plus even a letter giving wrong information. Sent me a letter back to contact them .2 hours 20 minutes in queue. Mind I'm in complaints gave person reference number absolutely no interest and asked why I was phoning. Asked to speak to someone else .put me on hold meant to wait another 90 minutes. So bad review an sent another letter Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Traumatic experience with Barclays mortgage

1
I applied for a mortgage from Barclays as a first time buyer. The experience has been horrendous and thanks to its very incompetent mortgage team I'm going to lose the property. The seller is fed up with the length of time this is taking when my solicitor sent all the paperwork related to the survey of the house around the 15th of Feb. Two months down the line this hasn't been sectioned. A complaint has been put through and even the complaint department didn't botherered to give me a ring when it was agreed through a text message. The stress and upset this is causing me is beyond belief. An absolute lack of respect to a customer. Never use Barclays as your lender Reviewed on: 13th April 2022

Appalling Customer service from Barclays

1
Appalling customer service from Barclays Bank. As a current customer I was told I could port my mortgage at my current rate, and refund my earlier payment fee of nearly £8000, following the sale of my previous home. Due to their horrendous customer service the 90 day period elapsed and have now had to remortgage costing me an extra £200 a month and losing over £8000. I am now 8 weeks down the line applying for a new mortgage and still no final offer, no feedback and when I managed to speak to them, my case has been passed around to 4 different advisors and a manager. The most recent excuse was they had lost the valuation, then when they managed to find it, there were IT issues attaching this to my case, with another further 3 weeks delay. I am now facing losing my property as the sellers are sick of hearing the different excuses and in such a competitive markets, this will probably cost me more money to find a new one.. The stress and upset is beyond belief. Can I suggest no one uses Barclay bank, as I now have no where to live due to short term rental running out and if this doesn’t complete, it will have cost me thousands!! If anyone from Barclays Senior leadership teams see’s this comment please help me!!!! If I lose my property the next steps are to seek legal advice and seek compensation. From a Very disgruntled customer. Reviewed on: 12th April 2022
