Review of the Hinckley & Rugby Building Society, Savings:

I recently applied for a mortgage with HINCKLEY AND...

I recently applied for a mortgage with HINCKLEY AND RUGBY BUILDING SOCIETY and was initially approved for £288,000. However, the offer was unexpectedly reduced to £273,000 without a clear explanation. Despite paying a £199 application fee, I have yet to receive a refund, despite multiple attempts to contact customer service. This sudden change caused significant stress and wasted valuable time. I believe the lender's initial assessment was flawed, as the discrepancy of £15,000 is too large to be attributed to a simple error. Additionally, I am disappointed that my bonus was not fully considered in the initial decision-making process. If you are considering applying for a mortgage with HINCKLEY AND RUGBY BUILDING SOCIETY, I would advise caution. Their lack of transparency, inconsistent communication, and failure to address customer concerns have left me feeling frustrated and dissatisfied Reviewed on: 4th October 2024

No title.

Called in branch to make a deposit. Was offered advice on both my existing, out of date account and the range of new accounts available. Thought about options and called in next day to open new account. The advisor was very helpful and explained things clearly. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2024
