Review of the Family Building Society, Mortgages:

A very satisfied customer...and then some!

Taking out a mortgage at the grand old age of 69 years having been told by my mortgage advisor the likelihood of which “may not be easy”,I persisted.And there you were. My one product with The Family Building Society,hasn’t required much direct contact it has to be said.However,the few occasions it has been necessary,I have met with friendly,supportive,professional individuals for whom nothing was too much trouble. Likewise,having recently remortgaged,everything was explained and I was kept informed every step of the way. Thank you. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2021

Great customer service as well as competitive rates

I have my mortgage with Family because they had the best rate and it hasn't been any trouble. In a position now to make an overpayment and so called up to understand the process and was very happy with the service. Spoke to Lisa and Jill on separate calls and they were both excellent. Polite, professional and proactively helpful really tremendous friendly service both times. Great to get such excellent human service will recommend Family after this experience.

Excellent custimer service with Gillian Collard being very courteous, quick and most of all very knowledgeable. Within about 10 seconds of passing security, she spotted the issue with my access and had two options to get me back up and running. Couldn't be happier. Reviewed on: 27th May 2025
