Mansfield Building Society Mortgages reviews (444)

Fantastic building society.

5
I had been looking for months, with the help of the mortgage broker, and nobody was able to help me. I got in touch with the Mansfield purely by chance, and they couldn’t have been more accommodating or helpful. Really personable, polite, nothing was too much trouble – cannot recommend them highly enough. Reviewed on: 7th August 2021

Excellent service - great people to deal with

5
We were switching our mortgage from a major bank to Mansfield - who offered a mortgage product which our mortgage provider (for 25 years) could not match. Not only did the product fit our requirements but the society were a delight o work with through the application process. Our IFA as also very impressed. Being able to talk to an individual who knows your account makes all the difference. Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

Really happy with service

Happy that they could help me to get a mortgage Reviewed on: 15th July 2021

Never had a complaint

At the time I required it this was a very competitive mortgage (interest only) and it made buying my house possible. Step into interest only with caution but when it’s right then the Mansfield is a very good provider. Reviewed on: 13th July 2021

Amazing customer service

5
When we took out a mortgage with the Mansfield we had been experiencing difficulties obtaining a mortgage because of our age, even though this should not have been a factor. The Mansfield were superb, offering us a good mortgage rate and thet have looked after us from start to finish. We have now redeemed our mortgage having made all of the paymentsand would never hesitate to recommend. Reviewed on: 13th July 2021

We were very satisfied with our mortgage with the Mansfield but was able to repay it earlier than expected

5
No other comment to make. If we’re were unable to redeem the mortgage we would have been happy to continue with it. Reviewed on: 6th July 2021

Shockingly poor communication

1
Have you tried calling your office? We spent literally days calling to get updates. Phone would go unanswered or just cut off. Reviewed on: 21st June 2021

A company willing to look beyond the conventional

5
Mansfield had the foresight to recognise that being a first time buyer who is also retired, my income is guaranteed for life and will increase every year. This being the case, I’m a lesser risk than a young couple. Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

We cannot fault the Mansfield

5
Excellent experience. Particularly the helpful staff when talking on the telephone, so refreshing compared to 'online chat'! Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

Fine to deal with but very expensive to borrow from

3
My overall feelings from my interactions with Mansfield are positive, and I used them to finance a self build project. However I feel this is a rather uncompetitive market and did not feel I got good value from them. I hope that more lenders come into the market in the future as this is a real barrier to step-changing the self build market. Reviewed on: 15th June 2021
