Good service over many years from helpful, friendly staff.

Tidying up our invested cash in our old age is the reason for closure rather than any dissatisfaction. The one little niggle I have was the prospect of having to pay £50 for the closure of 2 accounts by bank transfer, especially in current lockdown ... Read more

Tidying up our invested cash in our old age is the reason for closure rather than any dissatisfaction. The one little niggle I have was the prospect of having to pay £50 for the closure of 2 accounts by bank transfer, especially in current lockdown circumstances.

I had a tracker mortgage. When taking this out i was told that although it wasnt locked to bank of england rate it changed with the bank of england rate. This did not occur. During the lock down i had severe financial difficulties. The bank of england rate came down; mansfields did not.
Also when my contract came to an end the default rate was excessivrly high... £130+ more a month.
This is wrong.

Difficult to open an account at MSB

I FOUND it difficult to open an account at MBS partly due to Covid 19. I had to either return home to fill in the application form or sit on a bench outside. I choose the latter as I live a fair distance away from the branch.

Katie Scrase very helpful but we are only ever informed of anything after multiple chases.

To be informed completion was being worked to for the 3rd, to then only find out they may not even lend to us due to Japanese Knotweed. Even though a mortgage offer was submitted to us 1 month prior to this and no mention at all of that. Also the management treatment plan for the knotweed shows no areas of concern and is fully comprehensive. Also all other houses on the development have sold.
To have this dropped on us on the 11th hour has caused considerable confusion and stress .
