Excellent service from Mike Ritchie and Thomas Bridle for their roles in helping to find my partner and I the best mortgage and life insurance. Both extremely helpful and informative through the whole process.

I must have been about the most complicated case, with the lowest possible fees for the agents. Nothing but hard work for little return - I know because I was an insurance broker myself many years ago. That did not stop Adam Etherington and Lily Rechert from doing whatever it took to get me set up; often taking several calls from me a day, chasing them up with the insurers, liaising with my very inefficient GP etc. In particular, Lily must have sweated blood keeping track of this complicated and frustrating file, which keeping calm and pleasant. Many thanks to John Charcol, Lily and Adam.

Mo has been so kind, patient and really friendly whilst assessing and researching my best options for my needs. I had done some quotes beforehand and Mo managed to find not only better cover but also cheaper monthly payments! Very happy and grateful, highly recommend. Will use Mo annually to review my situation and gain sound advice!

Jenna Patel has been exceptional from start to finish. My case was not straightforward and became very time-sensitive, but Jenna remained supportive, proactive, and incredibly helpful throughout. She consistently chased updates, communicated clearly, and helped push things forward when it really mattered. What stood out most was that Jenna genuinely seemed to care. She did not simply disappear after the mortgage offer was issued; she continued to support the process, follow up with the relevant parties, and provide reassurance during a stressful time. I am incredibly grateful for everything she has done. Jenna is professional, persistent, kind, and a real credit to John Charcol. I am hoping to purchase another property next year, and when that time comes, Jenna will absolutely be my first point of contact. I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a broker who goes above and beyond.

First of all Adam was very professional, friendly and caring. He kept appointments and was very precise ensuring all information was clearly understood. He was supportive and catered for our needs by introducing the best option for us according to our circumstances. We believe that through his understanding of our situation the best advice, pricing was second to none. He delivered on time. We thank him for making this situation much easier than we anticipated.

I am delighted with the guidance and support I received from the team at John Charcol while securing my mortgage. Shaun Boyle and Eniko Kormendi both helped me at various stages in the process; my situation is a bit complicated, but they were always on hand to explain things to me and the whole process went more smoothly than I could have dreamed of. Friendly, efficient, and professional service from start to finish!

We are very happy with the service we received from David Rounsfell of John Charcol. He is very knowledgable, professional, responsive and helpful. He clearly has an in-depth knowledge of the whole of the mortgage market. He has a relaxed down to earth manner and has been a pleasure to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Smooth, efficient, and thoroughly professional from start to finish. A service that truly goes above and beyond. Shaahid Quinn consistently explored every avenue to secure the best possible options, leaving no stone unturned and turning what felt complicated into something seamless. Zerena Taylor was exceptional from day one — proactive, responsive, and always one step ahead, ensuring everything progressed smoothly and completed ahead of the stipulated timeframe. Professionalism at its finest and a customer experience that genuinely sets the benchmark. Highly recommended.

Would highly recommend John Charcol as both mortgage brokers and insurance brokers. Really went above and beyond to fulfil both of these for our family at the best rates. The patience shown and support was really exceptional. Lauryn sorted out insurance and we would highly recommend.

This is the second time that I have used Stephen Brown from John Charcol for assistance with my mortgage, and as ever he has been extremely helpful, reliable and reassuring. Particularly given the current circumstances with the Iran war affecting mortgage rates so suddenly, he has been a great source of calm, and managed to get us a good deal within a very short time frame, which was particularly important for us as our previous deal was due to expire imminently. I cannot recommend him highly enough and intend to use John Charcol again in the future.

Shaun Boyle and Emma Moores provided an outstanding service throughout our mortgage process from start to finish. Both were professional, responsive, and incredibly supportive throughout, always taking the time to explain things clearly and making what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well-managed. Shaun in particular was proactive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for us. Communication was excellent throughout, and we always felt in safe hands. I would highly recommend Shaun, Emma, and the team at John Charcol to anyone looking for trustworthy and highly professional mortgage advice and support. Thank you again for all your help.

This is 5 years late! Mortgage advice and fixed 10 year deal. I gave John Charcol 5 stars because they are amazing and trustworthy and did what they said they would do and give me an amazing deal and I saved £500. The whole process from start to finish, the communication was spot on and they are not shy to ask you questions about your spending habits. They wanted to know income money and every single outgoing, to work out what was best suitable for me. Sener my advisor was amazing he got me an amazing deal for 10 years which has worked out great as mortgage rates are shooting up. I'm totally greatful and appreciate all the help I received. I hope you can help me out again in near future. I highly recommend this company.

John Charcol has looked after our mortgages and subsequent insurances for a few years now. A totally faultless experience with all members of their team at every step of the way. Sergio, Daniel, Lilly, Katherine and i'm sure others behind the scenes leave you feeling in good dependable hands. Their pro-active approach is first class - a real pleasure to work with.
