They offered halal, sharia compliant house finance (mortgage), which is rare in the market.

The Gatehouse Regular Savers Account is one of the best on the market. Gatehouse provides an opportunity to save up to £300 a month in their 7% returns account. Once the account is set up, the app is simple to navigate and easy to understand. It does what it says on the tin. A little more communication via email about their products and presence in market activity wouldn’t go amiss, however their emails are concise and informative. Read more Read less

Atrocious customer service. No one willing to take ownership of complaints. 4 working days to reply to emails is totally unacceptable. Avoid this bank.

Good ISA rate, with easy application and account setup

The property needed some upgrades, heating and damp which we were aware of and would have been completed before exchange of contract. Gatehouse said they had to finalize the mortgage by Oct 16th giving us 3 weeks to complete the work! due to the time the mortgage had taken to complete. Time taken was excessive due to them dragging their feet when replying! Then we had the valuation done and the Surveyor valued the rental at nearly 50% below its potential. We submitted 9 independent Estate Agent rental valuations plus current properties that were being rented as comparisons. They went back to the same surveyor instead of getting a second opinion only to be told his valuation could not be changed. What a complete waste of time, even when presented with compelling evidence they can't look beyond the end of their nose. Go with a reputable mortgage company that listens to it's clients, this bank is a joke! Read more Read less

Very easy and helpful. No problems and good communication

Been saving with Gatehouse Bank for a while now and always found their accounts competitive and their staff knowledgeable and very helpful. Would recommend them

I wrote to it on the 7th of December and got an automated response saying I would get a human response within three working days. By the 14th I had had no reply, so I wrote again, and got the same automated response. It is now the 20th and still no answer. So I've written a snail mail letter, but I'm not holding my breath. I've deposited £85,000 with them; I expect better than this. Read more Read less
