Monmouthshire Building Society - Mortgages Review

We have been members of the Society for 6 years, and are now seeking to move, home. Claire, our mortgage advisor has been fantastic, and very efficient. I would say that whilst you might not necessarily get the best rates when compared to other lenders, they are still competitive and provide a far more personal service, which is worth more to us than a percentage point. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend Monmouthshire Building Society. Reviewed on: 12th August 2025

Monmouthshire app is appealing

Tried to open new 6% RS account. Can only do this via app, it's absolutely rubbish. Clunky. Keeps freezing. Can't add my code via a text into two step authentication as box to do so is just a box & won't accept any text. Money paid in takes ages to appear on account, app down for maintenance throughout the day. I'm closing the account as it's too stressful to use. Reviewed on: 9th August 2025

Excellent mortgage advice.

Leon has been brilliant from the start - called me when he said he would, responded to emails, sent me the information required, and explained everything with detail & confidence; making an often difficult and stressful process as stress-free as possible. He has responded to my many questions, providing the clarity I needed, and has explained next steps and what’s required of me. Ownership, clear next steps, and timescales, are very important to me in customer service - all of which were provided in a friendly and professional manner! Thank you very much!

Excellent, concise support with attention to detail

Previously had advice from Leon just as Covid lockdown started and when we spoke to him again to remortgage. Both times, he has been calm, concise and has given us excellent and measured advice, Reviewed on: 5th August 2025

Highly recommend!

My experience of raising a mortgage via Adam from the mortgage team (Decision in Principle) and with Pete (Mortgage Adviser) was superb. Pete’s advice was invaluable and the whole process was professional but friendly, and highly efficient and I also benefitted from 2 mortgage rate drops while awaiting completion (long, drawn out chain with my purchase). Prompt service with emails answered quickly and Pete was available at the end of the phone, giving that personal service that is often lacking with other lenders. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a mortgage as my whole experience was 5* Reviewed on: 4th August 2025

Lack of communication

I requested a decision in principle to take a mortgage out, and after having replied with my availability, I did not hear from the mortgage coordinator again. I think the service was very poor and therefore have decided to go elsewhere. Reviewed on: 14th July 2025

Great, personalised experience.

Great, personalised experience. The process is straightforward, with minimal paperwork and a common sense approach. I particularly like that I do not need another app. Reviewed on: 21st June 2025
