I received a courtesy call from Rian Brasier

5
I received a courtesy call from Rian Brasier to check I was aware of an impending mortgage renewal. I was but unfortunately had the two mortgage products we have with FBS mixed up so this was a fortuitous call that saved us from a potentially costly mistake. Many thanks!

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Luke Green...

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Luke Green today in the new business department, he was very professional, polite, extremely patient and very kind. He is a credit to your business and I was very suprised to find someone of his caliber at the end of a phone line. I hope he is destined for great things in your organisation. The time spent waiting for my call to answered could be improved but I dont put that down to him ! Reviewed on: 21st July 2025
