Great Customer Service

Spoke with Richard this morning, haven't placed too much business with yourselves in the past, I wasn't familiar with the process. He walked me through the process step by step, he helped me to do a DIP on the phone, (which saved me time when compared to trying to key this manually) this is incredibly refreshing - You do not get this level of service from other lenders to actually find an induvial who tries to help rather than someone who just wants the call to end! Really appreciate your help today Rich. Reviewed on: 9th July 2021
