The Worst Lender EVER

1
Avoid Dudley at all costs!! 2 months down the line and still no further forward, I work for a broker and have dealt with hundreds of lenders over 6 years, but Dudley is by far the worst I have ever dealt with. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2022

Absolutely shocking

1
Took 2 months to respond to a request to re-finance. Hiked up the monthyl repayments by 18% without explanation. Reviewed on: 14th August 2022

Poor underwriting process

1
The society has massive delays on underwriting mortgages. The excuse is low staffing. They also change timescales without warning. Reviewed on: 10th August 2022

Disappointed service

1
I have a expat mortgage with DBS and the incompetent staff who don’t listen and action what I’m asking for. I want to switch my mortgage and it’s taking ages to complete due to the poor communication and listening skills. Reviewed on: 19th July 2022

Good criteria generally

3
Generally good, but today I have been on hold on two occasions and after 10 minutes asked to leave a message as no-one available and I would get a call back. Call-backs are not being actioned. BDM out of office and mortgage sales email gets a return message saying will respond within 5 days. This is not great service, when you cant speak to anyone at all. Not been my experience with Dudley or regional lenders in the past so quite disappointing. Reviewed on: 14th July 2022
