Glad the Marsden in a BS that will extend a mortgage to ex-pats, but I find it hard to see how the Society can justify the interest rates it charges us. Why oh why are they so much higher than for domestic customers. Reviewed on: 27th April 2021

Job well done

I'm a "mature" borrower. The online processes adopted due to Covid constraints were easy to follow. The offer to extend my mortgage was attractive and made me feel valued. Well done Marsden and Thank You! Reviewed on: 21st April 2021
