Got a mortgage through very smoothly and always quick to respond to questions Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Perfect Service Every Time

I went to the Cwmbran branch of MBS 6 years ago as a first time buyer, the lady who arranged our mortgage was so helpful and explained everything beautifully, we took out a 3 year fixed and when it came time we went back to renew it and with the help of the advisor ended up taking 7 years off our mortgage and signing up for another 5 year fixed, the service is always amazing which is why we also have our savings there and we’ve just added a new member to our family so we’ve opened him a young saver too!

Being older other big building societies were less flexible on the age that they will lend till. Monmouthshire have accepted that older customers are valuable. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Twenty years with Mon BS. Many mortgage changes and NEVER any issues or problems. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Poor contact centre

1
When I was moving home they did not help service a new mortgage. I needed. Mortgage offer to know the new mortgage amounts. They couldn't book me in for 2 weeks, so the house I wanted would've gone. I was able to get hold of multiple other mortgage providers instantly and perform an instant quote, yet Monmouthshire, who I was already with, couldn't give me a quote for over 2 weeks and then eventually I had a much cheaper offer elsewhere. Poor customer service Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Amazing experience

5
I recommend Monmouthshire building society to every person I can. With their help I was able to buy first house at 22, which is not an easy feat in the current housing market. Very impressed with the service and remortgaged again with them 2 years ago, it was very quick and simple to do Reviewed on: 12th November 2019
