Dealing with Darlintgton is a much more personal experience than others. We have been with them for nearly 8 years and have found all the staff friendly, helpful and more importantly available to answer questions and assist without massive queues. Reviewed on: 24th March 2025

Darlington saved our home

Just when we thought there was no hope in our very complicated mortgage to save our home, Darlington processed our application via our amazing mortgage broker. Darlington is not complicated and it was quite stress free. Many thanks again Reviewed on: 9th April 2025

Darlington Building Society is our mortgage provider.

Darlington Building Society is our mortgage provider. And honestly, I don't know what we would have without them. They provided us with the mortgage we needed to buy our bungalow, which gave us a roof over heads! They have looked after since, with renewal quotes at excellent interest rates! We would highly recommend Darlington Building Society for customer service, product availability, knowledgeable staff and being there for us! Thank you Darlington Reviewed on: 9th April 2025
