Review of the Family Building Society, Mortgages:

Exellent customer service

Exellent customer service - I had some pretty dumb questions about my offset mortgage account, but your fantastic customer service representative, Gillian Collard, was patient, highly professional and explained everything perfectly. Absolutely faultless! Reviewed on: 30th April 2025

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

FBS mortgage coming to end of term

We have a FBS mortgage that is coming to end of term. We had a helpful letter of options if staying with them and a follow-up call today. The new offeres are a little bit higher than one or two others on the market, but the saving of no termination fee, no legal or other fees etc. make the FBS offer better overall. And the communicaion and service we hav received first time round was excellent. Reviewed on: 17th July 2025
