Newbury Building Society Mortgages reviews (1363)

Newbury were helpful to release funds quickly following solicitor confirmation.

Generally good, getting survey underway took a little while but covid 19 was a major factor to them running behind which is understandable. Tracing application fee payment was problematic which was frustrating as i had paid it way earlier than needed. Reviewed on: 18th August 2020

Great Service as usual

We applied for additional funds. The process was painless, carried through smoothly to completion and quite quick, despite some additional information being required. Very happy with Newbury and their customer service team. Reviewed on: 14th August 2020

Easy and straightforward process, more post-buy details please

We had no difficulty or issueswith the process of prurchasing our new home. However, we would be happier if there was an online account service for our mortgage which allowed us to view itemised details of the amount owed, the amount of interest we have accrued, and how our payments have been applied against the interest and the principal.
