As our "deal" was coming to an end we got in tocuh and booked an appointment. We found a date to go in very quick and quickly reviewed the best way forward. The paperwork was light and quick and the decision very fast. Very happy with the new mortgage. Reviewed on: 27th March 2020

I have always received good customer service with Newbury Building Society and they are quick and efficient at resolving an issues when I contact them. Only marked them down one star for this review as most recent contact with them there was lots of crossed wires and a lack of clear communication between them and housing association regarding remortgaging my shared ownership property.

I was given a target date which we missed and had an unexpected bill which I didn't account for which I was made aware of after I handed over my deposit. I was charged an extra £345 for a problem that was not my fault Reviewed on: 10th March 2020
