Review of the HSBC, Fixed Rate Mortgage:

OK but disappointed with product choice and service

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. on the website, but still wasted a lot of my time. Most unimpressed about lack of 10 year product when I applied last year - I would've taken this at any reasonable rate, but there was none at all - only 2, 3 or 5. I have a 5 year product, but when this runs out I'll now have to pay significantly more (every man and his dog could see interest rates were at record lows early last year and only going one way). Funnily enough now returns are so much higher for them, 10 year products are available from them and FD, which leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Also not easy to see my indexed valuation, although you can calculate it (balance divided by estimated LTV) but have to start a new product transfer application to do that.

Great rate and easy documentation

Clear language and good rate. Very pleased Reviewed on: 14th September 2023

Making the purchase of my first home super easy

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!

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

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

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

Really helpful

HSBC have been brilliant throughout our whole mortgage process. Great customer service. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2023

Great customer service

We managed to get in before Covid hit the world on a low interest rate in 2019. The staff at HSBC in Farnham and Guildford were super helpful. From getting our Mortgage in Principal to our mortgage later on. Step by step we were told on what needed to be done, and what we needed to say on phone calls. Excellent service. So much so we will be using them next time and we didn't need to use an external mortgage adviser. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2023

Easy to switch

Was easy straitforward to change online with enough information for me. If more information required easy to get more help. Reviewed on: 17th February 2023
