Review of the HSBC, Fixed Rate Mortgage:

Difficult on the phone

Very good in person but terrible on the phone at what they think is still needed to progress. After a lot of trouble we got there in the end! Reviewed on: 25th November 2018

An absolute waste of time!

1
I mean where do I even begin… Just to reiterate a previous review, if you want to lose all sanity and hope during a stressful time - i.e. buying a first time property - go for HSBC. They are absolutely useless and do everything in their power to make the application process as difficult as possible. After 5 weeks of endless back and forth paper work and explanation from our mortgage broker, we were informed that our application was rejected. What we’re having trouble understandi...

Making the purchase of my first home super easy

5
I chose HSBC as my mortgage lender as I am a long standing customer and they had very competitive interest rates. They worked quickly with my mortgage broker and solicitor which meant I moved into my house within 5 weeks of having my offer accepted. This made the whole process so easy. Many thanks!

OK but disappointed with product choice and service

3
They did well to meet my tight deadline, but unimpressed with the initial setup of the mortgage. I applied online for a remortgage but was forced to use "advice" (that I didn't want) because I was staircasing (buying out 100% of shared ownership). This seems a bit ridiculous - as on completion it becomes a standard mortgage, but I jumped through the hoops to get the appointments etc. Only positive is that it seems to have gone into a faster underwriting queue by going direct vs....

Easy to deal with and great rates.

I recently remortgaged late last year and HSBC were still giving the best rate around. So easy to remortgage. Very happy. Reviewed on: 9th April 2023

Very good value fixed rate mortgage

Very good customer service, clear communication, no issues raised in over two years. Very pleased with the way I have been dealt with, staff are proactive and very helpful. Reviewed on: 4th April 2023

Great

It’s really great and not too expensive Reviewed on: 21st March 2023

Flexibility within the product/easy to use app

5
After seeking help from a professional HSBC came out the best for my circumstances in terms of a 5 yr fixed mortgage. I like the fact the paperwork that was sent through explained in detail and also a brief summary of what the terms of the mortgage were and how much I could overpay each year. The app is easy to use and it is useful to keep track of how the mortgage payments are impacting on the amount borrowed. Reviewed on: 20th March 2023

Easy to set up, but their online system is out dated

3
It was a pleasure working with the people at HSBC to get our mortgage set up, making sure we were getting what was right for us. The came across as a ethical company. Their online and app set up is pretty poor thought, with it being a faff to set up and not as good as other banking apps out there. Reviewed on: 11th March 2023
