Review of the Vernon Building Society, Mortgages:

trying to find a mortgage when you are getting old

5
trying to find a mortgage when you are getting old is disturbingly complex and often leads nowhere. But Vernon accepted immediately and, realising my pension is £10.000 a month and continues even after my death, Vernon accepted very quickly. I was up and running in a very short time. Since then I have been amazed and satisfied with Vernon's non-bureaucratic and thus speedy management of my case. Reviewed on: 25th March 2024

5/5 for customer service

5
Always very helpful and staff will go out of their way to provide good service. Reviewed on: 6th February 2021

Good strong and professional advice. Lady I dealt with (don't think I am allowed to give her name) felt more like a friend at the culmination to our decision.

got this the wrong way round. See above for review. Title. Great company to work with. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Incredibly personable service in a turbulent time, thank you!

I was really keen to stay with The Vernon, because when the pandemic struck and nobody knew what the future would hold, I felt that they understood me as a customer and wanted to do everything possible to alleviate our concerns. At this time I had spoken to a woman called Kathy who had called me back and been really efficient. When our mortgage was then due to be renewed I had a fantastic service from Diana and was pleased to be able to stay with The Vernon on a decent fixed rate. There's a lot to be said for feeling like a person rather than a statistic and because of that I have stayed with The Vernon. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

I have lived in Stockport for over 60 years and throughout that time Vernon have always been there for those times that you need some expert friendly advice. Especially so regarding a mortgage . They are and always have been A GOOD FRIEND !! Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

Whenever I make contact with the Vernon everything is handled in a very efficient manner with a high degree of customer service evident. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

Understanding and helpful

The Vernon treat you as a person and not a number. I needed someone to take a view on the mortgage application because of age and family and rather than just box tick they looked at the person. Good old fashioned lending. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021
