I needed an Ex Pat Mortgage renewal. Spoke with Erick he was exceptional, talked me through the product and the process with precision. Alice was also great she was prompt to reply just as Erick was.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT, GREAT PEOPLE!

I've recently contacted Family Building Society about possibilities for the long-term future (eg extending my mortgage term) and also help with temporary difficulties, and they couldn't have been more helpful. I've been made to feel very welcome each time I have called, and all three people I've spoken with recently - Arounima, Aisha and Erick - have displayed incredible empathy and patience while I waffled on and have given me as much help as I could possibly have wished for. When I was looking to take out a mortgage 2 years ago, Family offered easily the best product for an ex-pat. I recommend Family wholeheartedly. Reviewed on: 28th October 2025

Great, friendly, professional service always

I spoke to Arounima R at great length asking in depth questions, FBS are lucky to have her, she was calm, professional and detailed. I miss the old school style service that FBS still have, highly recommend them. Reviewed on: 22nd October 2025
