SVR not come down after 3 interest rate cuts. SVR not come down after 3 interest rate cuts. Savings rates have come down. SVR goes up immediately interest rates go up. Gross profiteering imo. Reviewed on: 25th March 2025

Review of the Hanley Economic Building Society, Mortgages:

Fantastic Service from start to finish

5
We received an absolutely fantastic and professional service from the Hanley - In particular our mortgage advisor Lana. After a bad experience with a high street bank we approached the Hanley and can not fault the experience in any way. We were kept up to date, emails answered quickly and efficiently. Absolutely everything was easy and professional. We were constantly kept up to date, explanations given in understandable terms - Lana is an absolute star! Reviewed on: 1st November 2018

Good service

5
After a few issues changing our mortgage to move house we did speak to the customer services team. Our issue was resolved very quickly and we were allocated Jame Longmore to sort our new mortgage. Jane went the extra mile to advise us on the best product. She kept us updated through the process and the mortgage part of our house move was completed very quickly. Jane also followed up after the move and completion to check everything was ok. I would absolutely recommend Hanley economic. Reviewed on: 15th May 2023

Excellent service

I couldn't be happier with my experience with Hanley. The mortgage itself was the best on the market and the service I received was exceptional. Lana Beech was my mortgage advisor and she was knowledgeable, efficient and very proactive. She made the whole process simple and stress free. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Mortgage Process - Thank you Anna

5
Anna Whitehead was extremely helpful throughout the whole mortgage process while buying our first home. She was very approachable and answered any questions we had, both over the phone and email very quickly. Thank you Anna for all your help during what can be a stressful period, your help, professionalism and advice is very much appreciated. I would recommended to others to have a chat with the team at the Hanley regarding mortgages. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Outstanding service from Lana Beech and the Hanley Economic team

5
Lana has been incredibly helpful, friendly and prompt in dealing wth our buy to let mortgage which we were pushing to get over the line before the financial year. What can I say - they did it! The valuation was booked in within a couple of weeks and everything went smoothly. For anyone reading this I would recommend The Hanley and also Tinsdills (Andrew Burrows) who worked hard to get this done within the limited time frame we had. Thank you Reviewed on: 30th March 2023

An anxious remortgager

As a lady of a certain going through a separation, just thinking about all the financial upheaval was stressful. After speaking to Anna at The Hanley regarding a remortgage was enough to keep my anxieties at bay and move forward. Such a professional, lovely lady. I have been with The Hanley for a number of years, great products and lovely, local service. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023
