Over and Above I honestly could not fault VIDA at all. Yes, it probably took a little bit longer than most, but what do you expect when you are going to a specialist... Read more Reviewed on: 6th September 2021

Joke

1
Taken my valuation fee and my application fee and ran, in my application explained everything about property and its multi use, accepted my application took my money and then rejected my application on the same grounds I applied for. complete contradiction. valued my property 35.000 less then another mortgage company and an independent valuation, I get the feeling they had no intention of lending to me anyway. waste of time.

Don't touch with a barge pole!

Our buyers applied for a mortgage with this shambles of a company about 10weeks ago. The initial survey/valuation report was done about a week later. 8 weeks plus on we are still waiting to find out if they have their mortgage offer. They have chased them, the broker has chased them, but still no nearer. We have lost the house we were going to buy whilst waiting for our buyers. As far as I can see they are a waste of time. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy! If you are a seller make sure your buyer isn't using this company! Reviewed on: 8th March 2018

Complete bunch of ametuers

1
Applied with this company as being self employed was recommended by the broker, what a joke! after countless paperwork of income, tax, ID infact everything you can think of, over 9 weeks and STILL no decision! So cancelled and demanded a refund. They are utterly useless and conduct themselves in a like wise fashion. Save yourself time and money and go with a better lender even if its at a higher APR, its worth it. Reviewed on: 5th February 2018

Absolute shambles

1
My broker applied for a re-mortgage and no word for 2 months until I said I was going to take matter forward to get my money back. I paid 590 and only got 410 back, 180 was taken for administration work that wasn't done. What a load of rubbish, cowboy lenders. Brokers and the public to find reputable lenders elsewhere, please don't waste your time and money with unprofessional and unreliable set of scammers. Reviewed on: 8th January 2018

Utter Shambles

1
I am a professional mortgage broker. I have stopped recommending Vida because their mortgage application processing is a disgrace to the industry. Choose anyone else and save yourself the stress. Reviewed on: 11th October 2017

Terrible - hair falling out experience

1
My broker suggested these would be the best company for my circumstances. Buy-2- let. Has taken 2 months now and no clearer if I have the mortgage even though the valuation went ok over 3 weeks ago. I am being constantly pestered by the sellers solicitor. Very nerve-racking unprofessional experience - would never recommend them or use them again Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

nightmare

The whole experience has been a total nightmare. On their website they talk about how much experience \the team\" has - but dealing with them leads you to believe that they must have all been sacked by previous employers to form \""incompetent home loans\""" Reviewed on: 21st March 2017
