Painfully slow

2
Very please to have finalised the mortgage, but it was an incredibly painful process for a fairly standard application. I almost lost the house purchase and became awfully stressful Reviewed on: 16th May 2021

Unusual financial circumstances

Slow process - got there in the end!

3
The whole process was slow and time consuming probably due to Covid and the amount of information requested and the level of detail required. Got there in the end though, so thank you HRBS! Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Complicated and lengthy

Not clear at the beginning everything that is needed so created delays, solicitor sends information but not always acknowledged or misplaced/ ignored. Reviewed on: 3rd April 2021
