Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Mortgages reviews (396)

Expectations hugely exceeded

5
I received a letter from Hinckley & Rugby dated 6th April advising that my existing mortgage product was coming to an end in 3 months time. I then selected one of the new product options which were offered and very easily and quickly completed the application process online. I called the contract variations department the following day explaining I would be on holiday when the new mortgage offer was being sent (4 weeks before the new mortgage start date) and I was told I would receive the new mortgage offer in 7 working days which was in itself brilliant. The lady on the phone was very friendly and helpful. However I received all the paperwork the following day by secure email. The day after I emailed a signed copy of my acceptance which allowed me the option of starting this new product within 7 days without incurring any early redemption charges. I then received an email advising I would receive a completion letter in a few days. However I received this letter, again by secure email, on the same day. The whole process from start to finish took 3 days. Quite remarkable! Reviewed on: 14th April 2022

Unfortunately, our mortgage application took 9 weeks to process before we got an offer. Then we we very disappointed when the money didn't arrive in our Solicitors account in time for us to get the keys to our new house which was planned for 14th March. Reviewed on: 30th March 2022
