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:

This review is purely dedicated to Lana..

The Hanley and everything they have done for me and my partners first house has been incredible. I felt like I had a close connection with everyone involved all the way to underwriting.. however, this was down to the work of Lana Beech. There’s no over-exaggeration here when I say Lana literally has made our house purchase work. From her years of experience, her advice allowed us to communicate with solicitors to change their demands to make our mortgage work. Despite all this, she’s genuinely one of the most professional but lovely people I have ever spoken to. We spoke nearly every day for 2/3 weeks - and you won’t ever have to chase ANYTHING if you go with the Hanley/Lana. They are on the ball from 9am onwards. I had Lana calling me later on the day some days as she knew I had a late night the night before! Little considerations make the whole experience 100x better. Buying your first house is daunting. No matter what research you do, you can never know everything you need to know. In this day and age, there are too many formalities, and too much jargon. Sometimes, you need someone to talk to you as an adult and just explain everything you need to know. This is one of the best things Lana did for us. Incredible work. Have no doubts about the Hanley. They will be one of the most pleasant companies you have spoken to. Please show this review to Lana but also the hierarchy above Lana. It’s important to me that powers-that-be are aware of the work she has done, and the influence she made. I just wish she was a solicitor too!!! Oh, worth mentioning that the Hanleys products are brilliant too! It’s easy to forget this as you are sold straight away with the products that come back on offer! Reviewed on: 26th July 2019

Wonderful people work there, so friendly and efficient. They took all the fears I had away when I was re mortgaging after my divorce. They have a feel of old school customer service, like I mattered not that I am just a number Reviewed on: 17th April 2025

Grateful thanks to Hanleys..

5
I was pleased and grateful to my broker for finding Hanleys and to be given a lifetime mortgage when some places would not offer because of being over 80. Having been evicted by developers I was unable to find anywhere to rent . My phone calls have always been answered swiftly and in a polite and friendly manner. Reviewed on: 10th April 2025
