Professional, timely and efficient service

I had been concerned about securing a mortgage due to age but Newbury Building Society conducted their assessment in a fair, comprehensive and detailed manner, keeping me informed throughout. I was delighted with the result. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2018

Brilliant Service

Newbury Building Society is very good in various ways as a mortgage provider, I have been with it for many year and on three properties. Its good products, very good consultancy, fantastic advice, save us from worries and save us money.

5
Though there have been quite a few times I got very good advices from them, I give only two examples: I am now applying for an additional loan to my property, I planned for a discounted variable, but I was recommended a interest-only option, with lower interest rate and more suitable way to repay for me. Also, about five year ago, because of some reason, I asked for a bridge mortgage, for which I will need to pay much more interest, I was suggested a better way (plus the adviser's very helpful time control), eventually I bought the property in that way. You can feel their attitude are allway towards helping you, and their speciality is able to solve your problem. Reviewed on: 21st January 2018

Continually the best performer in the market place.

5
We have continually renewed our Mortgage product with The Newbury over the past 25 years not because of blind trust but because they continually out-perform the competition and are always available for phone consultations to iron out any queries I have had and advise of better products.

Personal Service

5
I've had several mortgages with NBS starting when I moved into self-employment and the high street providers wouldn't touch me, ignoring my previous earnings and savings. NBS apply a different approach; looking at you as a whole person not a set of numbers. They answer the phone, respond to emails and simply meet all expectations. I can't recommend them highly enough Reviewed on: 18th January 2018
