Ok but very slow

Recommend by our IFA but what should have taken 3-4 weeks took over 10. I realise that there pandemic affected everything but the delay and inability to be able to contact anyone or get a progress report caused considerable stress. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2020

Their customer care beats all of the bigger financial institutions

My experience with Mansfield has always been excellent. They are professional efficient but also kind and personable which is lacking in their larger competitors. Reviewed on: 18th November 2020

Good old no-nonsense building society

As older buyers, it was quite difficult to get a mortgage. We finally got one with the Mansfield BS - the rates were good, and we have found the customer service throughout the short life of the mortgage (now paid off) excellent. Reviewed on: 6th November 2020

Interest Only Mortgage

Very satisfactory. I have found Mansfield to be very efficient and helpful especially at this time of Covid. I needed an interest only mortgage at a fixed rate for 2 years in order to buy a property whilst I sold my previous one, which took a year. In that time the interest rate was extremely satisfactory and once the my property was sold and the 2 years was over I was able to pay off the mortgage. If I ever needed another mortgage I would certainly consider going to Mansfield. Thank you Reviewed on: 4th November 2020

Great and considerate service

Easy to contact and friendly help and advice when needed. Reviewed on: 28th October 2020

Very good flexible lender - Took a little longer than normal due to Covid 19 All in all a good experience Reviewed on: 26th October 2020

Efficient service experienced.

The people I dealt with were friendly and efficient. No problems experienced whatsoever, and I like the idea of interest only mortgages and that few lenders provide these days. Reviewed on: 29th September 2020
