Angela was incredibly helpful throughout the mortgage process and kept us fully up to date with what was happening.

No words needed - Bought my house in January & Rose was a fantastic start to finish, changed houses a few times due to being messed about by companies and it was never too much hassle. When a housing company advise I changed Mortgage company I refused due to how good Rose & Newbury were. Thanks from Ashley J. Reviewed on: 29th October 2019

Good interaction with the team and prompted by a letter from NBS, re coming to end of offer period on mortgage product, Had a chat, re transferring to a new discounted product. Spotted an ERC in the T&Cs, which was then overridden, but wonder how many other people would not have spotted it and been liable to ERC. Reviewed on: 25th October 2019
Reply from Newbury Building Society Hi Stuart, thanks for taking the time to leave this feedback. Thanks for pointing this out, our advisers should explain this, and for those customers that qualify, we have a secondary check when the mortgage switches to ensure it is not charged. We will look into how we can make this clearer though. Thanks again. Response date: 28th October 2019

Excellent personal service

I had a mortgage product that was maturing. The Newbury wrote to me a bit in advance and offered me an appointment. I accepted a telephone appointment. The advisor called me precisely on time (on a Saturday morning) and talked me through the options. After half an hour's deliberation I called her back and was put straight through to her. The documents arrived a couple of days later, which I signed and all was done. It could not have been more straightforward. To put the icing on the cake as my new deal was slightly better than my old one they offered to move me straight away rather than waiting the few weeks until my old deal expired!

We applied for an addition to our mortgage to cover a new heating system

Obtaining approval for the loan was efficient and straightforward. Due to a delay in the discussions and signing of the heating installation contract, we asked to put the loan on hold. The response of your staff was excellent, the delay was agreed to with absolutely no fuss and it was a very easy matter to trigger the transfer when finally needed. Your staff are efficient, courteous and provide a really personal service. Thank you! Reviewed on: 12th October 2019
