This relates to an ex-pat Buy to Let Mortgage application and I wanted to extend a 'thank you' to Kate Rockall – CeMap, Mortgage Adviser (Katherine), who has gone out of our way to assist us in deciding whether and how to move forward with our application.

Polite but a little slow

I felt it took a little too long especially as you told my broker my paperwork would arrive the day after she chased it, only to find you had two customers with the same name! My paperwork arrived the day I left for a holiday delaying it by 2 weeks. Reviewed on: 25th September 2023

Polite but a little slow

Whilst I was delighted that I was able to obtain a mortgage, I felt let down by the timescales, especially as you told my broker my paperwork would arrive the day after her query, only to find you had 2 customers with the same name. Mine arrived the day I left to go on holiday, delaying it by 2 weeks. Once complete I had very polite after sales service. Reviewed on: 25th September 2023

I applied for an advance on my mortgage and was dealt with by Angela Bradhsaw. I can honestly say from start to finish she was wonderful. Friendly and extremely patient with me when explaining the different mortgage products. Once I had made my decision, she was quick and efficient in getting all the relevant paperwork to me. Any queries I emailed to her were responded to quickly. Newbury worked within their quoted turnaround times and the whole process went smoothly. Can't fault them. Thaks again Angela :) Reviewed on: 15th September 2023

Simple and efficient to deal with (and very keen rates)

I recently switched mortgage products following expiry of an existing deal and the process was really quick and easy - the one criticism of Newbury is that there is no way of viewing your outstanding mortgage balance on-line (which is essential in effectively managing your debts) meaning you need to write, call or visit every time you need an update.
