Person centred support and advice for mortgages

Phoned H & R regarding my mortgage: to make an over payment and to confirm that I will proceed with my new mortgage office. Spoke with Alice who was incredibly helpful for the whole process. It's the personal touch that really stands out for this firm. Reviewed on: 7th September 2026

Best Decision We Ever Made

5
Dear Hinckley & Rugby team, We wanted to write to you properly, beyond ticking survey boxes, because the service you have given us deserves more than a score — although for the record, it is an emphatic 10 out of 10. Having just returned to Scotland after fourteen years in Canada, and living in temporary accommodation while buying our home in the Highlands, our circumstances were a little out of the ordinary. Your team took them completely in their stride, treating us as people with a story that made sense — and it showed in everything that followed. Your communication was outstanding — clear, prompt, and human at every step. You told us what you needed and when you would decide, and then you did exactly that: our offer arrived comfortably within the fifteen days you quoted, and you kept to every date you gave us along the way. That reliability took all the stress out of what could have been a very anxious time for a family mid-move. Just as importantly, every interaction was professional and genuinely friendly. Nothing felt like a transaction; it felt like a team on our side, working to get a family into their home. Your common-sense approach is not just a line on your website — we have experienced it, and it is the reason we will shortly take entry to our new home in Strathpeffer. We could not be happier to have our mortgage with a society like yours, and we will be recommending Hinckley & Rugby without hesitation. With sincere thanks and appreciation, William (Bill) and Valerie Reviewed on: 7th September 2026
Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Hi William, Thank you, Bill and Valerie, for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. It means a great deal to us to hear that, during what must have been a significant move for your family, our team was able to make the mortgage process feel straightforward, supportive and personal. We’re especially pleased that our communication, reliability and common-sense approach helped take some of the stress out of the process. It’s wonderful to know that you’ll soon be taking entry to your new home in Strathpeffer, and we’re delighted that you chose Hinckley & Rugby to be part of your journey. Your kind words about the team mean so much, and we’ll make sure they are shared with everyone involved. Thank you too for your recommendation — we’re incredibly grateful for your trust and support, and we wish you both and your family every happiness in your new home.

Outstanding support

5
In December i lost my husband and Louise from H&R has been the person who has supported me regarding my mortgage. She has been outstanding and so helpful that i don't think during this difficult time i would have managed regarding my home and the mortgage. She called me very regularly and her support and encouraging words have been incredable and knowing that she is only on the end of the phone has meant more than any family member calling to check in. She is a credit to the company and a very outstanding and warm human who was very understanding and interested in us as a family and empathic to our grief. Reviewed on: 3rd September 2026
Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Hi Ravinder, Thank you so much for sharing this incredibly heartfelt feedback. We’re truly sorry for your loss, and we’re so pleased to hear that Louise was able to provide you with the care, understanding and support you needed during such a difficult time. It means a great deal to hear that Louise’s regular calls, encouragement and reassurance helped you feel supported and gave you confidence when dealing with your mortgage and your home. We’ll make sure your wonderful comments are shared with Louise – we know they will mean a great deal to her. Providing a personal and caring service to our members, particularly when they are going through challenging times, is something we feel very strongly about. Thank you for taking the time to recognise Louise and the difference she has made to you and your family.
