Helpful Operator

Called FBS re changes to the BoE base rate and whether the last one in November 24 had been passed on. The operative I spoke to was very helpful, confirmed this is happening 20th Feb 25 and then spent time answering related questions for me. Reviewed on: 10th January 2025

New mortgage application

Louise the New business representative was very helpful and supportive throughout my application. There wasn't the need to book a time slot to speak to her or her team, I could call at a time that was convenient for me. I would highly recommend FBS if you value a friendly, approachable and transparent mortgage provider. Reviewed on: 13th December 2024
