I cannot recommend Heidi Hallett enough. She is by far the best broker I have ever met - proactive, attentive, goes above and beyond from start to finish, and is a genuinely lovely person to engage with. She is excellent at what she does and I look forward to reconnecting with her in the future

James Clark helped me sort my income protection polices. He has been a pleasure to work with and was always available to answer any questions I had with regards to my policy and made the whole process stress free, which compared to my last experience with another company was 100 time better! James is a credit to the team, many thanks.

Worst company ever and William Caldwell is an absolutely awful broker. Worst experience ever. Avoid and don’t waste your time with these people.

Excellent service from start to finish. I would like to single out for special praise, my broker, Karolina. She was proffessional, patient, personable and very knowledgable. She made what could have been an very stressful process, into an easy one. I will certainly be reccomending her in the future.

From start to finish, the service was outstanding! Our mortgage adviser Gemma was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and efficient, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. She took the time to explain every step clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and went above and beyond to find me the best deal. Communication was always prompt, and I felt supported throughout the entire journey. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services to anyone looking for expert mortgage advice!

Stephen Brown took time to understand our unique requirements and managed what turned out to be a complex remortgage process professionally. He was communicative and supportive throughout. An example of good customer service for which we are grateful.

My partner and I were first time buyers, and the help we have had from John Charcol has been second to none! Penny Ives has been a wonderful mortgage broker and helped secure us an offer we were happy with, giving us loads of support and updates throughout the process. David Donaghy, along with Lily Rechert have also helped us with income protection and life cover, and have also been great throughout, providing help and information whenever needed and helping us get the cover we need. Thanks again, and I would recommend John Charcol to anyone looking to buy a house!

We worked with Shak Bhairon as our mortgage broker during the almost 12 months it took to complete our sale, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. As first-time buyers, we ended up facing an unexpectedly stressful and complicated sale with endless delays, but Shak was our constant source of guidance, reassurance, and determination. She kept us informed at every stage, worked tirelessly behind the scenes to keep things moving with solicitors and lenders, while also continually securing the best possible mortgage rates throughout the process. Her professionalism was matched by her kindness, patience, and unwavering positivity, which honestly kept our spirits up during what was sometimes an incredibly overwhelming and emotional process. Shak was a trusted advisorand we're so grateful for her hard work, expertise, and the personal touch she brought to our home-buying journey: we couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

The support from Holly Grant was superb in helping us achieve our Life Insurance goals - not rushed and great attention to detail - Holly took great care to find the right solution for us. We are very grateful for her help and support. I would highly recommend Holly to anyone. I also thank Darren Small for the intro after all of his superb help initially with out mortgage - great firm!

My mortgage application was not a straightforward one, my age and the fact that all my earnings were from overseas were the main contributing factors. However with the help of Shak I was able to get over the line and am now in my new home ! I cant recommend the services of John Charcol and Shak highly enough. Safe hands !

We have been so pleased and grateful for the service we have received from John Charcol in respect to our Life Insurance and Home Insurance. Holly Grant and Zerena Taylor have shown us extreme patience during our house-buying process when we lost one purchase after the other---. Whenever we think of any of these services, we immediately think to contact John Charcol because of their fantastic customer service and their professional recommendations of products. Well done, everyone!

We have just completed a remortgage with David Pudney at John Charcol who is always efficient and reliable. He has a very professional attitude towards his clients. Thoroughly recommend him to friends and family and have been using John Charcol, for some years, very happily.

Outstanding Service and Expertise I had a fantastic experience working with my life broker, Samm. From the very beginning, they were knowledgeable, transparent, and genuinely focused on finding the best solution tailored to my needs. They took the time to explain all the options clearly, answered every question with patience, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. What stood out most was their professionalism and commitment to ensuring I felt confident and informed at every step. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and expert advice in this space. Thank you for the excellent service!
