On on completion day there were problems...

On completion day, additional documents were needed from our conveyancer although we received a welcome email the day before telling us everything was ready. Completion was delayed by 1.5 hours and it was a very stressful time. The sellers up the chain were threatening to charge us interest. Newbury need to make sure that everything is in place for the loan before completion day. This has knocked our confidence Reviewed on: 14th February 2025

Reply from Newbury Building Society Hi Julie, we are sorry to hear that your experience was worrying - we understand and our Customer Service team will be in touch as they will look into what caused this. Response date: 4th March 2025

Remortgaging to Newbury was a Great Choice

We were remortgaging to Newbury from another lender via a broker, but the interactions we had with Newbury BS staff was excellent throughout the process. We were always kept up to date with things and Newbury did things quickly, providing clear information all along the way. Reviewed on: 27th January 2025

Remortgage

I received my telephone appointment with Angela Burton from your Newbury branch and she was extremely helpful and explained all products clearly. She even managed to find a better rate of interest after the appointment and called me back to inform me. Reviewed on: 24th January 2025
