HSBC Fixed Rate Mortgage reviews (92)

Great rates but farcical process

2
It took 4 months for our HSBC mortgage application to be approved, a good 2 months longer than it should have done.mwe were passed pillar to post so many times we seriously regretted picking HSBC over a comparable deal with a building society. Our application was even closed down by HSBC for no apparent reason with us only finding out (and getting it opened again) when we called for an update. When the application finally went through I put a formal complaint in and to give the complaints department their due credit they compensated us with an amount equivalent to what we had been paying in higher mortgage payments while the application was going through. The rate is very good and is saving us nearly £200 pcm but the process of securing it was seriously painful! Reviewed on: 14th November 2016

good rate for premer account holder

you could get one of best rate in the market, plus some fee saving for premier account holder. Nothing you could complain about. Reviewed on: 12th September 2016

Very efficient when I called to discuss overpayments. The lady I spoke to was clear about the options and the outcomes, I felt they were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. First rate service! Reviewed on: 8th September 2016

HSBC Fixed Rate Mortgage

I am happy with my service and would recommend to others. I have obtained what I believe to be the best rate available to me be by choosing HSBC. I have not had any major problems with this service. There customer care is quite poor though - With long wait times and needless extra expense. Reviewed on: 8th September 2016

HSBC mortgage change

I contacted HSBC to find out about making additional payments on my mortgage so as to end it faster. They talked me through how to make that change online myself. Very fast and efficient service. Reviewed on: 6th September 2016

A great rate, but slightly painful application process

3
I've been a HSBC mortgage customer for a year. I'm really pleased with the rate offered, which remains competitive despite a subsequent base rate reduction. However, the mortgage application process was quite painful and I spent many hours on the phone sorting out the disjointed workflow between various back office teams when my application got stuck in the system. On balance it has saved me a lot of money and I'd consider them for future remortgaging. Reviewed on: 30th August 2016

Absolute no go

First time buyer and shared ownership (only being 25) I had the agreement in principle with everything ready to go house approved etc. Went to the meeting to cross the t's and dot the i's and things start to change. I'm told that a new build requires a bigger deposit. An increase of £16k to be exact. I told them that it had been agreed on 10% deposit but this was wrong as well. Their systems even proved that it had been agreed at 10%. Unless I could provide a 25% deposit of the mortgage value then I couldn't have one. So this was 2months after the agreement with only 4 weeks before I have to get out of the rented property I'm in, due to it being sold. Having banked with HSBC for 10 years now I don't think it will reach 11. I received a phone call apologising from the mortgage advisor and that they wish to give me £100 as a sorry. Unfortunately no mortgage and £100 doesn't put me in the house I want to buy that was agreed with my girlfriend and 17month old son. It's difficult enough to get on the property ladder these days without a major bank letting you down hugely. Reviewed on: 15th March 2016

Helpful staff and easy process

We have had an hsbc fixed rate mortgage for 10 years, and have stayed with them through moving house. They gave us a personal advisor who made the process smooth and was a great point of contact. Reviewed on: 29th January 2016
