Don't always believe

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

Truly excellent customer service

I am just paying off my mortgage with the Vernon Building Society and wanted to share my experience. The Vernon has given me truly excellent customer service throughout my time with them. Their staff are friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and helpful and have always done what they can to assist me. When I have requested a change in my mortgage, which required a letter to confirm the change, the letter would usually be received the following day (even if I had spoken to them in the afternoon). They have advised and helped me and have always been happy to answer any questions I might have had during my time with them. I am really glad that I chose the Vernon for my mortgage - I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you to all the staff that the Vernon, you are an excellent team! Reviewed on: 6th July 2020

Lucy Burnside

Words cannot describe just how wonderful Lucy Burnside is. She has made the whole journey incredible. We are buying our first home and she has been so helpful with everything. She has kept us calm and stayed in contact the whole time. Thank you so mich for everything you have done for us. Fingers crossed for the result.

Student Buy To Let Mortgage

Maureen and her team were great and really helped us when other brokers didn't. Whilst the Vernon product may not be the cheapest it was organised and agreed on much more practical basis e.g. focusing more on the proposed income streams and costs of the actual property rather than factors outside of this. Reviewed on: 9th June 2020

Reply from Vernon Building Society Thank you for this feedback. It is great to receive such positive feedback, especially about one of our more recent market offerings such as the Buy for Uni Mortgage. Response date: 30th July 2020

Thank you

Our experience was 2nd to none. The fact that the credit check /financial review is performed by a person rather that a computer was everything we needed in our circumstances. We wouldn't have got a mortgage and our dream home without Vernon. Thank you so much. Reviewed on: 8th June 2020
