Exceptional Service and Mortgage Advice

Our Mortgage Adviser, Anita, was exceptional throughout. She was extremely helpful, responded in a timely manner and really went the extra mile. She is a credit to the Monmouthshire Building Society. We felt reassured all the way along. Furthermore, Monmouthshire have provided our mortgages for many years and we have found them to be extremely good. Reviewed on: 9th September 2025

The Monmouthshire Building Society have a 'floor' rate on their variable rate products that, at the moment, doesn't go beneath 3.5 %. However they have no ceiling rate, so when the interest rates went up exponentially, there was nothing to protect their members. They therefore design their products to protect themselves alone. Potential customers should also know that for a long time preferential rates were offered to new members at the expense of existing members. Should a mutual building Society behave this way? Their mortgage products are all smoke and mirrors, a maze of early repayment fees, product fees, floor rates, set up so that their members will always be disadvantaged. I read the following today: "Monmouthshire Building Society has today (August 20th) published its financial results for 2024-25. The Newport-based Society has announced a 61% increase in profits for the last financial year, up from £2.3million, to £3.7million, and total assets reaching £1.72bn." Well it's no wonder. There's only ever going to be profits for the building society which plays heads I win, tails you lose. If you're looking for a fair building society which operates for the benefit of its members, don't look at the Monmouthshire. Reviewed on: 24th August 2025

Mortgage with Monmouthshire Building Society

I had a mortgage with Monmouthshire Building Society which was coming to the end of its term. I spoke with one of your advisers, Leon Jenkins, with regard to finding a new mortgage product. Leon was totally professional in his advice while at the same time being helpful, courteous and polite. He answered all my questions objectively, clearly and with great patience with the result that I felt reassured that I was taking out the best product for me. He made a potentially stressful experience into a very pleasant one. Based on my experience I would be very happy to recommend Monmouthshire Building Society. Reviewed on: 18th August 2025
