BTL Mortgage Product Transfer Experience

Friendly and prompt response and ability to talk to a knowledgeable person very quickly which is appreciated. Administratively still requiring wet signatures is tedious and not ideal for the environment. Product transfer options limited and uncompetitive. Reviewed on: 8th February 2024

It would be great to have an only portal for the mortgage products. It feels a little old fashioned not to have such facilities. Reviewed on: 30th January 2024

No contact regarding changes

3
Your company arbitrarily decided the change and lower the amount it was drawing for my mortgage repayment when I had given specific instructions for a set amount to be standard. It then took me some time to be able to make contact with you as I do not have access to my online account with your company. To rectify the matter I in the end had to set up a separate repayment standing order with my bank. Reviewed on: 24th January 2024

Unable to speak to someone helpful

I tried to ring 4 times last week and kept getting cut off. I emailed too and haven't heard anything back from that. My partner managed to speak to someone (no mortgage admin available) that couldn't totally help with our query. They promised to get back in touch with answers, but still waiting.
