Hayley McShane was very helpful throughout our mortgage application process. She explained the options for our non-standard situation very carefully, actioned things/responded to queries very quickly at all times and overall made the process significantly more efficient and less stressful.

We worked with Mark Brazier at John Charcol and I could not recommend him as a Broker enough. Our situation was unique and Mark found us the best rate, and was super responsive and went over and above throughout the whole process. Thank you!

Mark Brazier was incredibly helpful from start-to-finish, in what was a protracted transaction in a challenging lending market. Thank you for all your help guys! We will be using you again for sure. Best, Morgan

Having previously worked with the very helpful Paul Butlin at John Charcol when taking out our first mortgage, I retuned to the company for help with sorting out our mortgage as we wished to move home. This time, we’ve had the pleasure of working with Kurt Spooner and Leigha McShane, whose praises I honestly cannot sing highly enough. Kurt has been nothing short of awesome when it comes to being on the ball professionally with his knowledge and advice, and also for being a really solidly supportive advisor in the midst of the chaos of moving house! It has felt throughout that Kurt has truly had our best interests at heart and I feel I wouldn’t have got more sound advice or a better mortgage rate anywhere else. Plus, he and Leigha are lovely people to boot! I’ll definitely be coming back to John Charcoal in the future and hope to work with Kurt and Leigha again.

I can't recommend John Charcol and their services highly enough. My Mortgage Adviser Julie Harris was a massive help throughout the whole process and went above and beyond in dealing with any queries I had as well as offering advice to help keep me at ease with the whole process. The communication was excellent and Julie was extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout and always very approachable and generous with her time. Thank you!

As expats seeking to invest in our first property in the UK, we had the pleasure of working with Michael Alberts from John Charcol, and he has been nothing short of extraordinary in his support throughout the entire process. Michael's wealth of experience in the industry, coupled with his empathetic approach and proactive work ethic, made the entire process a breeze and helped to ease the stress of making difficult decisions. If you're looking for someone who is dedicated to delivering the best possible outcome for you, we highly recommend Michael. Thank you for all of your hard work! I could not recommend Michael enough!

A wonderful mortgage broker service. I dealt with Gordon and Emma, both of whom were amazing - so helpful, so full of great advice, and couldn't have been more accessible and friendly. I will definitely make sure I use them for any mortgage related transactions from now on! Very happy customer

Our mortgage broker Julie Harris from the Birmingham branch was absolutely amazing. Julie kept in regular contact with myself and answered every question we had. She went above and beyond what was expected and became the driving force behind the purchase of our property.

Julie Harris (Birmingham) was fantastic and handled everything for us from the moment we had an offer accepted on our house. She and the whole team were always available if there was any question throughout the entire process

We started with a no fee broker and got left in the lurch so we switched to John Charcol. I heard they had a good reputation for handling more complex cases and they didn't dissapoint. Shaahid was very knowledgeable and experienced and advised me very well. He's a hardworking chap and didn't leave me waiting around for an answer. Shaahid saved me money too by renewing the offer when the rates had gone down as I was buying at the most expensive time where rates were concerned. The customer service in general was great. Once the mortgage offer was received Katherine took the reigns and she was fantastic. I didn't need to chase anyone Katherine was on the case 110% shepherding all parties towards completion copying me in to all the emails so I could see all the developments without having to pick up the phone to anyone. Thank you both again for a great service and for keeping going when the first house fell through. I would certainly recommend you!

From the moment we contacted JohnCharcol we received excellent customer service. All members of staff were clear and transparent on every step of the way with the mortgage application/Life Insurance. The representatives were patient, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to address our needs. We thank Samm, Oliver and Cristian for helping us along our journey!
