Gave what other companies didn't

5
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
