Friendly service and competitive rates

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

Reply from Vernon Building Society What lovely feedback Bethan! We are always happy to have you as one of our valued members. Response date: 8th November 2019

App to offer fantastic, offer to completion poor

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

Reply from Vernon Building Society Hello Mark We are glad you found the app to offer stage successful and had a positive experience with us at this stage. We are sorry to hear that you have had a less positive experience when in the offer to completion stage. We have passed your feedback to the relevant team who have committed to reviewing the process to ensure we are providing the best customer experience possible. If you wish to discuss this further please call us on 0161 429 6262 and we will be more than happy to discuss this further. Thank you for your valuable feedback. Response date: 12th November 2019

Efficient, professional and straightforward

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

Reply from Vernon Building Society That's great to hear Neddy. We pride ourselves on being local as much as we do our customer service. Response date: 8th November 2019

Outstanding staff

Our dealings with the Vernon have always been a pleasure. The staff will always "go that extra mile" to be helpful and explain appropriate procedures in an understandable way. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

Reply from Vernon Building Society If it's for you Michael, we're always happy to go the extra mile! We are so happy that you found our service clear and understandable. Response date: 8th November 2019
