LENDING AS IT SHOULD BE!

One word.... OUTSTANDING.... That is how I will describe my experience with Hinckley & Rugby Building Society. From start to finish their expertise, customer service and professionalism was exceptional. Being a relatively small lender Hinckley & Rugby provide an intimate and personal service.

Slow process - got there in the end!

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

MORTGAGE REVIEW

Covid experience made it a totally different application. Reviewed on: 12th March 2021

Reply from Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Thank you for taking the time to provide the Society with feedback, we are glad you enjoyed the overall experience. If you would like the Society to contact you to discuss how the application was different please email your contact details to [email protected] with your contact information. Response date: 16th March 2021

Very slow!

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? Response date: 2nd March 2021
