Ethical mortgage provider

5
I'm impressed by Nationwide. I was only prepared to get my mortgage with an ethical / mutual provider. Thanks to Nationwide's good rates I didn't lose out financially for sticking to my principles. Their service has also been unfaultable. Reviewed on: 17th January 2023

Great mortgage rate

5
I have had a mortgage with Nationwide for 5 years and the rate was very good. Reviewed on: 11th January 2023

Mortgage Application delayed until they could charge me more

1
Nationwide promised to honour a mortgage Decision in Principle for up to 3 months after applying. First, they refused to allow me to "increase" my deposit, unless I took a mortgage with a higher rate. Somehow being a safer customer was a bad thing... Then I applied for the mortgage well within that time limit, only for them to stall the process with repeated requests for evidence of funds (which I responded promptly to, and which would not even have been part of the deposit anyway!). Eventually the 3 month limit hit and despite already applying they refused to honour the DiP because time had run out. Only choices left were to take a more expensive mortgage or look elsewhere, which I am doing. Utter waste of time. Reviewed on: 6th January 2023

Ask to check your data and get it erased

1
I had been a member for many years and recently closed all of my accounts following a lack of interest in the retention of business from the CEO. Following this I asked them to erase all of my data and following some very inconsistent replies saying it's 12 years and then only 6 I received a final email from them saying that they would not reply to any further correspondence saying that any further contact from me would be marked as unanswered. How rude is that? I had previously asked for copies of all of my data which I did receive a link to and you would be amazed how much and what they retain. So I have made a note to contact them in 6 six years to have it all removed as one of the things that they never assured me of was that it would actually be deleted even then. Time will tell, so be warned and maybe check out your position. Reviewed on: 18th March 2022
