Very slow!

3
I’ve never known a slower purchase. Too many hoops to jump through despite the amount of detailed information we provided! Not open to using smaller but specialist solicitors. Shocking valuation, a second opinion should have been taken! The only overriding factor was the underwriter who took a view. Reviewed on: 2nd March 2021
Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Thank you for your feedback. We’re really sorry that your experience was not more positive although we’re glad that our underwriter exercised individual judgement with your application – this is what sets us apart from many larger lenders. We’d love to investigate the circumstances behind the slow progress and provide you with a personalised response – please can you email the Head of Underwriting - [email protected] with your name and account number?

Long winded and frustrating

3 to 4 underwriters all asking for the same info time after time Reviewed on: 22nd February 2021
Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Thanks for your feedback. We are sorry that you were unhappy with this aspect of your application. We’ve tried to call you twice to discuss the complexities bespoke to your circumstances which necessitated the involvement of several of our underwriters at a late stage but haven’t been able to get through to you. If you’d like to email [email protected] then we’d be happy to talk you through our processes and timelines. Response date: 1st March 2021

Poor service

This company were so inefficient. They came back again and again with questions. And just at the last minute before completing, they came back with more questions. They are overly particular. Would not choose again Reviewed on: 12th February 2021

Absolutely useless

We are doing a selfbuidl and applied via Buildbase in August last year, full application went in in October, after two months of not hearing anything we changed, seems you your systems 'lost it' so resubmitted at start of December, after some week so questions, we replied in two days, another wait. More question (which you had already has answers to). Warned we would lose the builder (due to start on site on 15th March) if you didn't give us an answer. More waiting. Warned last possible deadline was today. Get email at 4:30 saying 'underwriter still has a couple of questions but I;m on holiday nest week so I'll tell you what they are when I get back. Call with our builder and he confirmed he cannot wait any longer. What is your official complaints procedure. Reviewed on: 5th February 2021
Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society We’re very sorry that your experience was so poor. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to turn this around, we understand that you’re back on track now, and all is well. We look forward to hopefully keeping you as customers for a very long time!
