Excellent service experienced from MBS Advisor.

Got in touch to renegotiate my mortgage which ends shortly and promptly arranged telephone appointments for next week. I spoke to Mr Wayne Donovan at the Newport office who was most helpful, polite and courteous. Our conversation was followed up promptly with information on what to expect during my future meeting and relevant information l would require to have at hand. Concise information and excellent information and help from Mr Donovan. 5* service. Reviewed on: 19th July 2024

I really like how much you value your customers.

I really like how much you value your customers. Michelle gave me excellent advice - thank you. I do find your online system slow and difficult to use. For example, if I transfer savings it can take days to show on my account whereas with other saving accounts you can instantly access and transfer money and see it in real time.

Absolutely unacceptable!

1
Absolutely unacceptable! I arranged a call with a mortgage advisor, clearly stating my overseas location and need for a phone number for the appointment. The call handler acknowledged this, yet the mortgage advisor didn't bother to respond to any of my emails, completely wasting my time. This lack of professionalism is utterly disappointing. They should have at least had the courtesy to acknowledge my emails. Don't bother with these so-called professionals. Reviewed on: 22nd June 2024

Thanks to Leon, we were able to get a mortgage for our new home after being let down on three occasions by a mortgage broker. Leon was professional, explained the process clearly and supported us during the application process. I wish we did a mortgage application weeks ago to save the drama! Reviewed on: 14th June 2024

Excellent service by Leon Jenkins from start to finish. Leon saved the day yet again, securing a mortgage for our new home. We have been with the Monmouthshire for 9 years and have always received the best, personalised service. Leon is a real asset to the company! Reviewed on: 14th June 2024
