Great service from start to finish

I recently used Newbury Building Society for the first time, and I wanted to share my positive experience. The staff were both friendly and highly efficient, making the process smooth and hassle-free. I was particularly impressed with the Free Legals system you use. It stands out as exceptional compared to other lenders I have worked with. If only more lenders adopted such a system! Reviewed on: 18th December 2024

Made buying my first house relatively easy!

All the people I dealt with sorting out my 1st ever mortgage were very helpful especially Lauren who I dealt with the most. Very quick at replying to messages and one of the easiest companies I've dealt with in a while to get through to on the phone. Good mortgage rate too. Reviewed on: 6th December 2024
