Having used another Mortgage Adviser before, I can't tell you how relieved I was when I contacted John Charcol and spoke Karol Wolosiak and how easy he was to speak to and every concerns I had he put me and easy. He kept me up-to-date without chasing after him and all in all I can't tell you how brilliant he is and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone, 100%. Thank you for everything

Gordon Burkert and Rebekah Starks took time to understand what I was looking for and clearly outlined the various options. They delivered the 'friendly and professional advice' promised by John Charcol at every stage from the initial query through to completion, I'm pleased to recommend them.

I am pleased with the service provided by John Charcol and their agent David Pudney who handled my case. My inquiries were answered timely and clearly. My mortgage application went well and I received the mortgage offer earlier than I expected. They actively follow up on my case from the mortgage application to completion.

My mortgage request was quite a complicated one given the nature of my job and Randeep persisted with various options over quite a period of time to get me the best rate possible.

Over the last 2 years, the housing market has been volatile. We were first time buyers, with no knowledge on how to navigate the different complexities. Steven Prior from John Charcol helped us throughout the 2 years it took us to land a purchase, inspite of all the ups-downs we witnessed as buyers. He was patient, incredibly helpful, and provided key insights on the process whenever we needed. He was also quick to deliver on any brokerage / lender related work which ensured that as a buyer we moved fast throughout the transaction. Even when on leave, he ensured that his colleagues were avaliable to help us out. Thankyou Steve, Matt, the firm - John Charcol for helping us get our first house. You were probably the best folks I came across in the entire process.

Dealt with Iain Pithers from start to finish and he always made me feel like I was his only client. The attention to detail, the promptness of responses, the quality of advise and the undoubted vastness of his experience makes me recommend Iain with no hesitation whatsover

Randeep went above and beyond in supporting me through the process of obtaining a mortgage when purchasing my first home. He answered any query I had very promptly and explained and discussed options thoroughly, helping me understand and choose the right product. Would definitely recommend to friends and family members!

I had the pleasure to have Shaun Boyle and Scott Hodder guide me through the remortgage process with great skill and unwavering support. They gave me excellent advice, great support throughout, found me a good mortgage provider and patiently answered endless questions.

I couldn't recommend John Charcol more highly. Always available to talk and no stranger to a challenge. Whatever your mortgage criteria, they'll work tirelessly to find a loan for you. My broker Heather is an expert and extremely hard-working; she didn't give up in the face of a challenge, but she was always up front and realistic, explaining everything meaning I always understood where we were at and what the next steps and likely outcomes wee. She treats your mortgage like it's her own and does all she can to find you the loan you need. She was ably assisted by Katherine who managed managed to shave a week off the valuation/offer process, amazing! I'd never use another brokerage firm!

So far only a telephone call but great advice on how to get along with splitting my property and selling one half to pay off my mortgage, my mortgage company were very unhelpful but thanks to Laurence I now have a plan and will be using John Charcol to help me sort out finances.

I was rather desperate to get a new mortgage due to the terrible interest rate increases. These increases meant that I was not getting enough rent to cover the mortgage. John Charcoal was able to get me a new mortgage, with amazing terms and it all went so smoothly. They are terribly efficient and communicate the whole way through the process. Cannot thank them all enough!

Excellent, prompt and efficient communication with ALL members of the team, from start to finish. Extreme professionalism, the best mortgage advisers that I had ever worked with. They have managed to help us with what was proved to be a rather complicated purchase via a LLP and they have been on our side constantly, efficiently, every step of the way.

Was worth the investment of paying a fee. Robert Orr had excellent product knowledge. The whole process was seamless from initial engagement to completion. Ended up with a product that repaid fee many times over!!

John Charcol were professional and provided a good overall service, my Mortgage Adviser went the extra mile to deliver, was friendly and dedicated. My Client Relationship Manager was again friendly however lacked the speed I would have expected to push through the mortgage, but that is the only area of improvement that I would like to see, overall I was pleased with the service provided.

Andrew Ireland has been the best mortgage broker I have ever used. I have 10 houses on various mortgage deals so I have dealt with him on multiple occasions. He is very prompt to respond, has an excellent knowledge of the confusing range of mortgage products and is always very easy to communicate with. I recommend him unreservedly.
