Review of the Vernon Building Society, Mortgages:

Don't always believe

3
Money tooken for house valuation and it is our fault that we didn't wait for the answer first. But customer advisor was saying "no need to woried all should be okay, all looks good". Declined because of that there is gaps for last 4 years working (it is not true). Money for deposit are from student finance (Not true as well). Not even given a chance to prove that that it is not true. "You are in risk beacuse of Covid-19". So why giving a hope.. I do not recommended Reviewed on: 16th July 2020

POOR COMMUNICATORS

1
Led up the garden path by them with a mortgage in principal given & then withdrawn after an offer on property was accepted & fees spent only for it to be withdrawn with a poor excuse with no offer of anything else despite having several buy to lets already. Not to be trusted. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2022

Lucy has been great, always kept me informed of how the process was going, even logged on to update me on her day off. She is a credit to your company, and I would like to tank her for her help Reviewed on: 7th July 2022

Lives up to their values

5
At the Vernon they truly believe in reviewing all mortgage applications on a case by case basis and take all of the applicants circumstances into consideration to give a truly personal and individual service. Reviewed on: 4th April 2022

Knowledge, understanding & service.

The Vernon are always willing to consider a plausible mortgage enquiry for my clients. They will look to accept cases that we would ordinarily struggle to place with most other lenders. Using common sense underwriting, they are very easy to work with. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022
