I had a non -standard mortgage application an I earn income abroad. Darlington came up with a solution Reviewed on: 28th March 2025

Finding a new fixed rate mortgage was easy.

When our fixed repayment mortgage came to an end, I found it easy to move forward onto a new fixed rate term. The advice available from the society was excellent and after consideration was able to decide which option was best for me. I have been pleased with this decision and very happy with the result.

Well done Darlington Building Society.

We joined Darlington Building Society in 2018 on the recommendation of a financial advisor here in Chesterfield, and we moved to Chesterfield in 2015 from our grass roots of Hartlepool. It is so nice for us to hear the Northern accent of Ann Walpole and all the other staff at Darlington Building Society. We not only have a mortgage but also 2 loans at very competitive rates, we have recently taken out an ISA each with good interest rates too, higher than anything you can get here in Chesterfield. It is also pleasing for us that we receive from them a monthly news letter, which keeps us informed about the local activities and charities that Darlington Building Society are involved in. Everytime we phone up with an enquiry all staff are able to help with any renquiries, they all have a good allround knowledge of the products and you don't get passed from pillar to post they are all able to answer. Two weeks ago we moved into another property and porting our mortgage was so smooth with no hiccups whatsoever. All members of staff are a credit to Darlington Building Society, which can only prosper on these foundations. Well done all! Reviewed on: 27th March 2025
