Very frustrating trying to deal with them: sent a secure message because that’s the channel I prefer because I’m busy during the day at work, yet the my insist on calling me back to discuss by phone! Left a voicemail which then meant I need to ring them and sit in a queue, when they could have just responded to my message so I could read at my convenience. Mentioned this to the advisor on the phone and she was quite defensive and couldn’t see the problem. Very old fashioned and not very customer friendly. Read more Read less

Angela Jones was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and kind throughout the whole process. Our situation was complex from the beginning (PhD stipend) and there were also a few hurdles along the way but Angela was really helpful and patient throughout the whole process. She was always contactable and had time to answer questions. We always felt she was pushing our application forward and saved us a lot of time and stress and gave us access to offers we wouldn’t have been able to get on our own. We would recommend anyone to work with Angela who is looking for a mortgage. Read more Read less

I'm a first time buyer so I needed some hand holding, Angela was absolutely fantastic. We had issues with our solicitors and estate agent but Angela was our knight in shining armour. She couldn't have done any more for us, would recommend Angela and I'd definitely use her expertise again! Read more Read less
