Nationwide First Time Buyers Mortgage

I'd like to thank for nationwide it has given us an opportunity to own a first property .We were down by santander and natwest for no reasons even though we had a big deposit upfront and holding current accounts and credit cards from them .But Nationwide offered us a mortgage without any hesitation .They took about a month to pass the mortgage as our application was randomly selected to be sent out to Head Office but they approved at the end with lowest interest rate of 1.89% back in 2015sept.I would recommend anyone to try nationwide first .Now I have switched my current account and credit card to nationwide as well .They offered me a reasonable amount of overdraft and credit limit on credit card.Looks like they really care about customers.

Thanks Nationwide once again.

After a miserable prolonged experience at Santander, I was well pleased with the telephone mortgage that I got.Had 2 x 20 minute phone calls. Paid valuation fee on first phone call and got a little worrried that I might lose my money when I read other reviews on here. I think there was a fee of about £100 aswell. Anyway, no need to worry, mortgage went through easily within a month ( they did knock the amount of loan down by £2,500 but this was done on the first phonecall so as long as they are upfront - no probs)

My experience was 100% positive.

Do not go to Santander, totally un-professional and sloppy.
