Newbury Building Society Mortgages reviews (1356)

Review of the Newbury Building Society, Mortgages:

Gave what other companies didn't

I have been with Newbury since 2014 and they are/were the only company that recognised a services injury pension when applying for a mortgage...the other companies basically said the computer says no'. Thus I recommend The Newbury to everyone, they are professional, friendly, approachable and go out of their way to help. My mortgage advisor, Angela Bradshaw is just the best and has simply gone above and beyond to help and advise. Simply the best company who treat you as an individual with individual needs and not a computer statistic Reviewed on: 30th April 2021

Staff at the building society responded quickly.

Staff at the building society responded quickly and helpfully throughout the entire process. We were working within strict time constraints on the purchase of a property and staff kept us fully informed of progress at all stages which took the pressure off from what can be a stressful experience when it is not something you do every day.

First time buyers

As first time buyers purchasing a shared ownership home the process felt quite daunting. Thankfully the team made everything easy! The paperwork was straightforward and didn’t feel jargon-y. We had swift responses via email and phone for any of our queries. Reviewed on: 13th January 2025

Friendly, helpful and professional service.

My mortgage advisor Lauren Dearlive was both helpful and knowledgeable. She helped guide me to understand the current mortgage options that were available for me, she also passed me onto her colleague, Simon Dawson - Allen who was as equally helpful and efficient with explaining further options of help and support.
