Suzanne Eccleston explained all that I needed to know regarding switching mortgages in a clear and concise manner. She was friendly and helpful and put me at ease. I have to say that since getting our Mortgage from you in 2016 I have found my few interactions with your staff to be easy and they are all so friendly and helpful. Keep it up Reviewed on: 21st June 2025

Mortgage Application

We recently used a mortgage advisor (Paula) from Darlington Building Society and couldn’t be happier with the service we received. From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and reassuring. Paula was incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to explain all of our options in clear, straightforward terms and making sure we felt comfortable at every step. Reviewed on: 25th April 2025
