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

Excellent customer service - super knowledgeable

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

My mortgage product was coming to the end of its term and was being changed to a new product. I had a query that I needed to resolve first and contacted Kieran Smith who gave me the answers I needed. I have spoke to Kieran before and he is excellent, as are ALL the staff that I have dealt with. Great company, great staff. Thank you. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Remortgaging how it should be - fast, clear and simple

For my remortgage as an expat, I could't ask FBS for more. From application through ongoing communication to product switch, it has been smooth sailing with excellent and transparent communication, no hidden surprises and super responsive. Reviewed on: 15th May 2025
