a bit perturbed

the only thing i will complain about is, we have moved to France, and because of this you took us of our fixed rate, and you told us that you could no longer support us with a mortgage, so we went else where which is fine we understand that Brexit has caused a lot of nonsense for a lot of people and businesses' however I was a bit perturbed when we saw that you had charged us to leave our mortgage. we realise that this is standard procedure but under the circumstances it just felt like a bit of a kick in the teeth!!

Mortgage product switch w/ Lauren Dearlove

A call I had been putting off for a while as I thought it would be a long drawn out process. Lauren was excellent, good telephony manner and soft skills throughout the call. Very efficient in what she was doing and got me the outcome I was looking for in about 20 mins which was the biggest surprise for me. I should have called much earlier but that’s my lesson learnt.

Your company is beyond outdated.

Your company is beyond outdated. How is it that from 2019-2024 we were never able to check our motgage balance online? Dealing with your company was like dealing with a company in the 1950s. You are so hopelessly outdated that, while we might have considered refinancing our house with another mortgage, we decided to pay it off so we wouldn't have to deal with you anymore. And then when we finally did pay off the mortgage, it took NBS more than 2 weeks to confirm the payoff. Ridiculous. Hopelessly out of step. Terrible service. Reviewed on: 21st June 2024

Reply from Newbury Building Society Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry for your experience. It does take a couple of weeks for the mortgage repayment process to complete from receiving your funds to notifying Land Registry that we no longer have an interest in your property. However, you should have received confirmation from us when we received your mortgage funds and we are sorry this did not happen. As you mention borrowers can now see their mortgage balance online through our Mobile App; introduced due to customer feedback in the last couple of years, and this functionality becoming available to us from our IT provider. We would like the opportunity to talk to you about your experience, and can ask a Senior Manager to give you a call if you wish. If you would like us to do this, please contact us at [email protected]. Response date: 25th June 2024
