Vernon Building Society Branch Review

No complaints at all, always very helpful and pleasant. Reviewed on: 30th September 2022

An old fashioned lender that you can talk to.

5
I looked for a mortgage to take me into retirement. After trying many other lenders who were not interested to help The Vernon saw no problem in lending based on current income and retirement income and found appropriate ways to facilitate what I wanted. When I wanted to move they were again understanding and enabled me to achieve what I needed without fuss. The great thing about them is that you can actually talk to them and a real life person looks at your circumstances and makes the decision. "The computer says no" does not apply!
