Review of the Santander, Mortgage:

I would give it to 0 if I could.

1
I would give it to 0 if I could. The experience is extremely awful, they are not professional at all. THEY DO NOT BOTHER TO CHECK YOR DOCUMENT AND JUST KEPT BOUNCING BACK AND SAID YOUR DOCUMENT IS NOT acceptable! Their employees do not even know how to check sharecode, just inform client and stated that the share code isn't working. Reviewed on: 6th November 2024

As a customer I found they supported me and made the process very easy, I wasn't too happy with their free legals but this is not down to them so overall I was fairly satisfied. Reviewed on: 13th December 2019

Best Mortgage Ever

5
Mortgage rate of 0.49% above the base rate, never been able to beat this for the last 15 years. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2019

Underwriting process is terrible when they have to pay to broker

1
I wouldn't suggest any one to go with this bank for first time buyers. You will found yourself in a hell and on the top if you applied through broker, these people will put you in a terrible situation where you will be ending up with nothing but just losing credit history and time. So i will suggest you not to use this bank especially if you are a first time buyer. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019
