Shoddy service for a loyal customer. The letter sent to me on the 8/5/24 gave the wrong figure for the monthly repayment - a highly inflated figure which was frightening when first read.... Read more Reviewed on: 21st May 2024

FBS simply the best customer service

I contacted FBS to advise them I was thinking of Equity Release. Louise took the call & without being overbearing she offered up other products that she thought might be beneficial to me. Her professionalism & knowledge was excellent & enabled me to find a product that fulfilled my requirements. Louise proceeded to talk me through the process fully explaining all aspects. A completely positive experience from a top professional. Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

I wanted to know if I could make a one off overpayment on my mortgage, how to do it and how my monthly repayments would be affected. I spoke with Aaron who was really pleasant and answered all of my questions without any fuss. Also, I didn’t have to wait in the phone for half an hour before something me answered, or do any “select 1 for…..” stuff. I rang the number and the phone was answered after a short message.

Fantastic customer service, I can honestly say probably the best I have ever experienced from your wonderful staff. I spoke with Serena yesterday who took her time with ne and went that extra mile to ensure I had all the information I needed and provided the support perfectly with my product switch. I also spoke to another wonderful advisor today called Mia who was just as amazing. Reviewed on: 19th January 2024
