Review of the The Cumberland, Mortgages:

Not just a number

I lobe how personal this building society is. Ive used this bank for as long as I can remember as My Mum has too. They are reliable and always there to help with anything you need or want from a bank. I trust them and would never want to look elsewhere to look after my money. My little boy also has 2 savings accounts now and i hope he chooses the Cumberland when he grows up. Annie Reviewed on: 6th March 2022

Initial mortgage appointment

As a first time buyer I was a little unsure as to what to expect from my initial mortgage appointment. Lewis at the Cumberland was very knowledgeable and gave me all the tools I needed to feel more confident in making an offer on my first home. Reviewed on: 28th February 2022

Great service, great team

All the mortgages are really helpful and offer a friendly local service compared to other financial institutions Reviewed on: 25th February 2022

Moved house

Moved house and had been mortgage free for many years.Needed a little top up and had used Cumberland Building Society many years ago.Advisor was great with us Reviewed on: 22nd January 2022

Good service and competitive rates

Mortgage advisor was supportive, attentive and helpful whilst helping us to find the best rate. Good service over the phone Reviewed on: 12th May 2021

Innovative and resposive

Cumberland Buiding Society provide outstanding service with friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff. Their new mortage into reitrement products are a godsend to us older clients who until now had no options for home ownership without getting a Lottery win and buying outright.

Real People serving Real People

They operate as a small family business but with the weight of a large bank. Love the personal approach - not a robot in sight Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

A green mortgage

I just saw you topped the Ethical Consumer rating for banks and lenders. I am surprised that green investing is still only an option. Thank you for leading the way. No-one should be investing in financing climate change. Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

So helpful and supportive

From start to finish, the experience was friendly, helpful and easy. Excellent customer service, accurate and efficient. Reviewed on: 2nd April 2021

Renewing Mortgage

Incredible service from start to finish. I appreciated how all the staff were aware of my case so everytime I spoke to someone, I didn't have to keep repeating myself. Informative and very slick organisation Reviewed on: 2nd April 2021

Retirement mortgage

We applied for a retirement mortgage to enable us to extend our current property. This was not an issue for the Cumberland Building Society and we were granted it without any problem despite our age. Reviewed on: 1st April 2021
