Marsden delays resulted in my having to pay more for my mortgage

2
My mortgage came up for renenwal recently and I tried to get a comparison of the options available for 2 weeks without success. Marsden did not respond to my emails and it was made more difficult because i was overseas. By the time they returned my message the variable rate option i wanted to take was no longer available so I ended up paying more for my mortgage, and they would no take responsibility for this.

It's been a great experience, as simple as I suppose it could be to apply for a mortgage but what's more important is that we've received a great offer from them. Reviewed on: 20th May 2022
