We All Like A Happy Ending

4
We wanted to increase and extend our existing mortgage following an IHT review. The initial answer to the question was YES IN PRINCIPAL, so great start. Then came the forms, followed by more forms. Not that complicated with hindsight but persistent and full of jargon. Why abbreviate when you are writing to Joe Public? Tell us what you need to know in plain language without cloaking! That gripe over, we were well supported generally and once the ‘I’s and ‘t’s were sorted everything was completed in good time, leading to a happy ending! Reviewed on: 4th March 2022

Professional yet friendly service

5
Fabulous customer service from the professional yet friendly agent I dealt with. Her product knowledge was exceptional & was made to feel like a truly valued customer. Although did have to chase a few weeks later as hadn’t received documents that were promised but really wasn’t an issue. Would definitely recommend the Newbury to friends or family & would consider using again in the future. Well done guys. Reviewed on: 26th February 2022

Easy re-mortgage

5
Very straightforward process to re-mortgage, particularly when compared with another big high street lender who messed up my initial application. I've re-mortgaged a number of times over the years and this was one of the most straightforward ones that I remember. Reviewed on: 25th February 2022
