A Comfortable, Hassle Free Experience

5
I changed my mortgage to a RIO (Retirement Interest Only) mortgage. From the point of enquiry through to completion the Vernon mortgage team clearly explained the mortgage and fully supported me throughout with a dedicated advisor available to answer any questions I had. I was never under any pressure, time constraint or influence to make my decision. Vernon made choosing a mortgage a pleasure not a chore. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Customer service was 5*.

Down to earth

5
I have always been pleased with being able to talk to Vernon staff on the phone. The advisers have a down-to-earth, friendly approach and explain any changes to payments, for example, with clarity. It's a refreshing contrast to the proliferation of "chatbots" or impersonal call centres. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

The best choice for customer service

Vernon have been outstanding since we started our journey with them, their customer service in particular has been exceptional. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Excellent face to face service.

5
The most important part of using any financing institution is to be able to talk face to face with a member of staff. We’ve always been able to do that. In addition we’ve always been treated with respect and kindness. Excellent service. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Our mortgage is with Vernon and they were very helpful as it was our first mortgage and needed lots of advice! Their rates were competitive and we have been very happy with the service Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Great experience

5
I'm self-employed and as such the mortgage route is a slightly different process, Vernon made the experience very smooth and were very quick to respond to any questions. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

The VBS has provided us with a mortgage product.

5
The VBS has provided us with a mortgage product that many other banks and building societies have not. They have always ensured that we get good rates and products as their range has developed. They are particularly helpful and attentive to detail Reviewed on: 13th January 2026

Extremely knowledgeable and helpful staff

5
The mortgage offering by Vernon was perfect for our needs. All staff were extremely knowledgeable of their products, polite and customer focused. Reviewed on: 13th January 2026
