The team at Vernon are always quick to respond, and are very helpful. They are happy to look at properties that are a bit unusual, so you are not faced with a "computer says no" scenario. They take the time to understand the situation and come up with a proposal that is tailored. Reviewed on: 14th November 2019

We've had our mortgage with Vernon BS for over 30 years, during which time we have borrowed, paid off some capital, borrowed to get a bigger house, borrowed to buy a rental property and have just reduced the capital a little more as we are nearing retirement. Always fantastic service and from long-standing staff. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!! Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

The number of items that were requested were onerous and too much, my solicitor received numerous pages of requests, the app to offer was about 2 weeks and it was over 3 months to complete. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

I have heard people speak positively about the Vernon and when my financial adviser recommended them for my mortgage I was pleased to apply to our local building society. It met everything I wanted in terms of the product and the way the business was conducted. Thank you. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019
