Everything Rosanna did was great, my only comment would be that it is a very long process. The time customers have to wait for the underwriter to review an application is far too long, nevermind the week extra delay. Reviewed on: 17th August 2022

One thing I didn’t really want to hear at this particular time was “it could affect your credit rating” At the time I was quite ‘down’ and it seemed, to me personally like an underlying ‘threat’ (not nastily). Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

No new products available at the time and it is very frustrating that they did not contact me a full 3 months before my deal ran out to see if I wanted a new product. Now I have to wait AND the new deal will be worse. Customer loyalty??? Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

No way of managing my mortgage online. Answers to my questions were a little vague. Not happy that I need to prove to you that I can afford to pay off my entire mortgage. I’ve been paying your over inflated rates for 16 years. Reviewed on: 15th August 2022
