Everyone involved was excellent from Harris in obtaining the mortgage to Iain and a real shout out for Ann who helped move the transaction to a quicker completion and managed to manage the lawyers concerned who were a bit tardy. Being a lawyer myself I was really struck at how good the service delivery was , indeed it surpassed my expectations. I will recommend John Charcol in the future, it is rare to get a team of people in different offices where their is no weak link. Indeed the service was seamless,. Also the mortgage I obtained was one other brokers said was not possible. So they really do have the products available which others may not have.

I will never use the mortgage department of John Charcol again. I asked when taking out a re mortgage to pay the fee to the third party up front, it was added on to the mortgage and it is not the first time it has happened. I have not had great response to my complaint and in the end had to sort out with an added charge. I will never recommend John Charcol and will in fact discourage people from using them. I am going to seek advice from the financial ombudsman as being ignored is not professional, but it is the best way to hope that someone is going to give up on the complaint.

Reena and her colleagues kept us informed of the progress of our application throughout the process even letting us know when there would be no updates for a few days. This really takes out any worry and stress from the whole business of applying for a mortgage. We were never left wondering what was happening. The people we dealt with were helpful and professional but also very friendly and human.

Great experience with John Charcol both as first time buyer and arranging remortgage. My advisor Matt Daly has been outstanding, taking care of every detail with such professionalism and never too busy to answer questions. Very much recommend John Charcol for finding the best deals and for the peace of mind.

I was struggling to get a remortgage due to a title restriction on my property, in the whole process John Charcoal staff were the only proactive personnel I dealt with and they saw it through to the end. The service I received from Sarah Teff and Iain Rossi was first class and I would happily recommend John Charcoal to any of my friends and family.

I’d been impressed with John Charcol as we’ve used them in the past to remortgage. This time we were looking for a bridging loan to enable us to buy a house we’d fallen in love with while ours was still on the market. Hailey Kow did a great job and we secured the new home we wanted despite competing offers from other prospective purchasers. Very professional, very good service and we thoroughly recommend.

Tom Allen at John Charcol pulled out all the stops to make sure that we got the very best mortgage in super efficient time on the back of accounts and circumstances were less than straightforward. Tom certainly pulled a rabbit out of the bag. I cant recommend him and his team at JC highly enough!! We'll be back! Thomas and Nyree O'Maoileoin

We had a shaky start with John Charcol due to staff turnover. Considering we were very advanced into the process, we suddenly had to start all over again due to two of the staff that were dealing with our case leaving. The most frustrating thing was being asked, by different people, for every single document and information that we had already submitted. However, once one of the agents became our only key contact everything worked very quickly. It is a shame that we experienced the frustration at the beginning because once Louise Onn took responsibility for the process, it was plain sailing.
